Russell is in high school and has been enjoying the dramatic arts for most of his life. He has studied drama at school for many years, and since the age of 10 has been involved in drama programs at Orleans Young Players Theatre School. His dramatic flair is part of who he is each and every day.

Russell plays one of the boys who wanders into the sex shop in Episode 3. We are thankful to Russell's parents, one of whom was on set during filming, who were fine with him playing the role in such a location.
