TOM JENKINS

ACTING

Tom Jenkins started out this life by wanting to be either an FBI agent or a rock star.

Learning at age 8 that being a 'G-Man' required higher math skills and bad suits, he quickly settled on a musical path, playing drums in various rock and jazz bands in his formative years. Born in Kentucky and raised in West Virginia, Tom's parents' always said, "Son, you have no where to go but up!" Secretly, they meant out, so Tom moved to Florida after college and caught the acting bug, as well as all the other bugs, mosquitoes and slimy, crawly things that the Sunshine State had to offer. After honing his acting 'chops' in Florida, and an appearance on Nickelodeon's, 'Clarissa Explains it All', Tom moved to Los Angeles.
