Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada

Joshua was born in Vancouver, British Columbia, but spent the first eight
years of his life in California before returning to Canada. At the age of
11, Josh decided he wanted to pursue acting. Knowing how cruel an acting
career could be, his mother, a casting director, took him to his first
audition in hopes of discouraging him. Instead, he landed a commercial for
Keebler's potato chips.Since then, Josh has had a full career ranging from
theater to television.
