Jeremiah was born and raised in Gadsden, Alabama. Growing up, movies were a huge part of his life, and his fascination with acting and filmmaking only grew over time. Faced with life in a small town where acting wasn't taken very seriously, Jeremiah did what most small town kids with stars in their eyes do: he turned to sports. He found that the pursuit of excellence in football and baseball became a short-term substitute for his real passion. After graduating high school, he inherited a sum of money, and chose not to pursue sports in a post-secondary school. Instead, he attended a nearby junior college, majored in English and took an acting class. He studied for two years and got up the nerve to move to California. To do this, he needed to sell his four month old house and all of his belongings. He arrived in Los Angeles in February of 2004.Once in Los Angeles, he dove into the most accessible programs he could find. He studied acting at the New York Film Academy at Universal Studios, where the directing bug bit him hard. He became consumed with the directing process and closely observed the directing students when they went to the Universal Lot to shoot short films. He also trained at the Century Playhouse in the Meisner Technique. Later he trained privately in the Stanislavski Method Technique. Throughout all of his acting training, he continued to teach himself about directing. Studying and analyzing the films of directors Stanley Kubrick, Ridley Scott, David Fincher, David Lynch among others.Tough lessons were learned, while trying to get his acting career started, after many auditions and initial ventures led nowhere fast. Jeremiah then decided to showcase his own stories and visionary tales. Screenwriting became the next stage in his journey.
