Mini bio

How it started.

Joshua grew up homeschooled in Oceanside, California, with five sisters. Following them into musical theatre, he started performing at eight. His first production was High School Musical, where he played Jock No. 2. A connection through his oldest sister helped him start taking acting meetings at sixteen.

Finding Ricky, finding his voice.

Playing Ricky Bowen in Disney+’s High School Musical: The Musical: The Series brought his acting and music together. Alongside performing, he co-wrote “Just for a Moment” and wrote “The Perfect Gift” for the show. He also played Anthony in the Disney film Better Nate Than Ever.

Records of his own.

His solo releases include the three-song Crisis / Secret / Set Me Free in 2021 and debut studio album The Golden Years in July 2024. Easier followed in August 2026, with nine songs on Plush Records. October’s “Voodoo Doll” added an alternative single to his catalogue.

More ways to tell a story.

Joshua made his New York stage debut as Seymour in Little Shop of Horrors in December 2025. In May 2026, he published Rookie, a memoir in verse about personal struggles, recovery and hope. The publisher lists it as an instant New York Times bestseller.
