His family shifted to Kentucky when Jeremy was 10 months old. He grew up in a town named Mount Sterling, famous for its picturesque views and its mountains. As a child, Jeremy loved climbing mountains. He spent almost all of his childhood in the arms of nature. This adventurous streak later helped him prepare for the role of ‘Peter Pan.’

Jeremy had an artistic inclination since childhood. Observing his interest in arts, his parents got him enrolled him into the state’s ‘Gifted Arts’ program’ at the tender age of 6. Such was his talent that he was the youngest participant in the highly prestigious program.

After spending his initial years in Mount Sterling, Jeremy moved with his family to another town named Lexington. There, Jeremy first ventured into modeling. He walked the ramp and gradually became a popular local model. At the age of 11, he joined the ‘International Modeling and Talent Association’ and started his career as a model.

As a model, he won several accolades, such as the ‘Pre-Teen Male Model of the Year’ award in 2000. Shortly after this, Jeremy’s parents decided to move to Los Angeles, where Jeremy could begin his career in acting.

Jeremy performed almost all of his stunts in the film himself. He had always been a sports enthusiast, and that helped him.
