Noted Scottish native, Jan, embarked on a life-altering journey with his family, relocating from Glasgow to Winnipeg, Canada, where his earliest forays into the performing arts began to take shape. A standout in grade school, Jan secured the coveted role of Ebenezer Scrooge in a production of 'A Christmas Carol', foreshadowing a lifelong passion for the craft.

After completing his Physical Education degree at university, Jan's interest in the performing arts only intensified, leading him to enroll in the Theatre and Drama program at the University of Winnipeg. However, life's unforeseen twists and turns often have a way of diverting even the most promising paths.
