Roman Anthony Pantaleion was born on September 8, 1990, in San José, California, USA, and from a very young age, he demonstrated a profound enthusiasm for entertaining. This innate passion led him to form a singing group with his twin brother and a younger cousin, and by the second grade, he had already choreographed a dance for a country music song his classmate performed at a school talent show.
Throughout his academic career, Roman continued to hone his skills in the arts by joining school and church choirs, as well as piano in high school. His passion for literature was equally evident, as he would often spend his summers writing plays and television show scripts for his friends and family to act out.
By his senior year in high school, Roman had already made a name for himself in the school's productions, starring in notable plays such as Grease, Class Action, and A Raisin in the Sun. At the fearless age of 19, Roman made the bold decision to move to New York City to pursue his dreams of becoming an entertainment attorney and an actor/singer.
While attending school, Roman worked diligently to make ends meet, and in his free time, he dedicated himself to honing his craft with his vocal coach. He spent countless hours auditioning and working on the set of television shows, often serving as an extra. This experience taught him the importance of on-set etiquette, as he made a point to study and communicate effectively with the crew, always offering a helping hand whenever possible.
Roman firmly believes that one should learn every job in an industry, so when a critical task arises, only one person needs to be called upon.
