NOLAN GROSS

It is true when people say: Anything is possible, as long as we put our mind to it.

Even without a music career, he first embarked his journey in acting and performing on stage. He has the capacity to adapt to many skills that involve creative direction and design. In his aspirations, architecture and interior design are skills that he would see himself excel.
