Reynolds' love of performing took root in elementary school, sparked by a production of "The Nutcracker." He went on to participate in school and church theater, while also singing in a youth choir and pursuing self-guided artistic study. In his early thirties, he moved to Los Angeles to chase his ambitions. Without formal training, he built his career from the ground up, working on student films at USC's School of Cinematic Arts in both on-camera and behind-the-scenes roles. He later broke into network television and feature films as a background extra, eventually earning mentorships and stand-in work for major stars, including 22 episodes on ABC's "Ugly Betty" (2006–2007) and the pilot of Brian Grazer's "Shark," directed by Spike Lee (2006).
