Born and raised in The Philippines to missionary parents, Wesley has been acting and singing since age 7. He left the island country, on his own, at age 16 to study Art/English thru a scholarship from Spring Arbor University in the State of Michigan. While on a week-long trip to New York City as a senior Art student, he saw 'Les Miserables' on Broadway, an experience that set him on a course to acting professionalism. Shortly thereafter, he moved to Los Angeles and was accepted into The American Academy of Dramatic Arts where he graduated with honors.
