ENVER GJOKAJ was unhappily studying Computer Science at Berkeley when he caught the attention of a theater teacher who was able to home in on his potential and suggested he audition for the acting programs at NYU, Julliard & Yale. He auditioned and was accepted into not one, but into all three programs, and with a scholarship to NYU. But the road wasn't always such a golden ticket. California born and raised, growing up he had a bit of a fight to establish his individual identity: he grew up as one half of an identical twin set; when the family moved to Hawai'i, he and his brothers were bullied for being White mainlanders; and upon entering the Hollywood industry he fought to establish his acting identity as a quirky character actor within an industry that also didn't know where to place him themselves. All of this led him to becoming the versatile actor of depth we know him as today and since, he's been featured in films and TV shows including Dexter, The Walking Dead, Agent Carter, Agents of S.H.E.I.L.D. and NCIS: Hawai'i to name a few.
