Born in Euclid, OH, Gordon is true-blood Clevelander. Having received his initial acting education at The Chagrin Falls Academy for the Performing Arts, Gordon went on to study Screenwriting/Playwriting at the SUNY Purchase in NY. Quickly drained by the financial burden of attending an out-of-state University, Gordon returned home and continued his collegiate studies at Tri-C (Cuyahoga Community College) majoring in Chemistry. While enthralled with the sciences, Gordon's love for acting could not be quelled. While enrolled in community college, he completed a Bachelors degree worth of acting and theater classes and after two years as he was readying to attend Cleveland State University (CSU), Gordon performed in his first equity production as Avery in Annie Baker's "The Flick" at Dobama Theatre in Cleveland Heights. Gordon would go on to earn a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Mathematics from CSU with a minor in Theatre Studies. During his collegiate career, Gordon performed with, and later ran, the improv troupe Rare Form Improv. From there, he moved to the greater Atlanta area to pursue a film and theatre career as an actor, writer, storyteller. Since then, he has appeared in films such as Jack & Ava - a modern Bonnie & Clyde tale - and Gacy: Terror in Suburbia.
