As a young boy, he developed an interest for music and tried learning various instruments. He also had a great singing voice, and enjoyed dancing. Alan had a religious upbringing and Christianity was always a big part of his life and large influence on his choices from the earliest days. Alan’s father was a pastor, and Alan decided to follow in his father’s footsteps, so having matriculated from high school, he enrolled at Liberty University in Virginia with the desire to become a New Testament professor. During his first year at the University Alan showed great promise and determination, and was especially good in Greek studies and Philosophy, for which he had gained interest while still in high school. During his studies Alan could speak Greek at a very high level, however, it all changed after he decided on a whim to apply for a University talent show. He got the opportunity to showcase his singing and dancing skills by performing a Michael Jackson mash-up, and the crowd’s reaction persuaded Alan to listen to his friends’ advice, and pursue a career in the entertainment world, so he decided to quit his studies and move to Los Angeles in 2006, and never looked back.
