Aaron Phillip

Aaron Phillip, is an actor and model who was born in Toronto, Ontario and raised in  Richmond Hill, a small town on the outskirts of Toronto. Aaron is the son of Aileen Abrams (Phillip), a Dental Assistant, and Peter John Phillip, an owner of a shipping company. His mother Jewish (parents from Lithuania, Europe) and father from Grenada (A small Caribbean Island). Aaron has one younger brother, Jonah Phillip.  


From an early age, Aaron was always known as a shy, reserved and quiet individual who always kept to himself. He attended York Hill Elementary School from grades 1 to 4 and later on transferred to Brown Ridge Public School, due to a learning disability. Aaron overcame all adversities and graduated from Alexander Mackenzie High School, where he then enrolled in the Graphic Design program at Seneca College. He later on landed a co-op position as an apprentice for Pedram Goshtasbpour (an animator who has worked on films such as Spiderman 1 & 2, Final Fantasy Spirts Within, and Jumper to name a few). He then began modeling with Sutherland Models and Velocci  Model Management.  


Shortly thereafter, Aaron enrolled in acting classes at  Sears & Switzer and SecondCity (home of  Eugene Levy,John Candy, Michael Myers, and Martin Short). Since then, Aaron has done work for names such as L'Oreal, Pepsi, Danier Leather, Instant Star, The Bay, Moores, and Telus to name a few. Aaron hopes to take this success even further and someday become that spoken voice who always wanted to be heard.
