Jasper Newell is born and raised in the East Village in New York City. He is a man of many faces and characters. There are three loves in his life that drive him: Acting, family, and basketball. He started his professional acting career as a little boy and his love for the performing arts has never wavered. It has taken him around the world and has introduced him to wonderful people. Since his career as a child actor, he has cultivated a passion for directing, screenwriting, and performance art. He draws inspiration from people such as Jack Black, Joel Edgerton, Romeo Castellucci, and Kanye West (to name a few). He has no plans of stopping or slowing down. Now that he has graduated with a theater degree from Rutgers University, he is beyond excited to see where the next chapter of his artistic career will take him.
He is thankful for every moment and every ounce of support he has ever received.
