Life and career

Luke was born on 13 September 1995 in Washington, Pennsylvania, United States. He received his bachelor's degree from George Washington University in 2017.[3]

He began his entertainment career as a model in 2017, after being scouted by an international modeling agency. He then got his first modeling job in Thailand, so he moved there from the United States.[4]

His modeling agency informed him that if he could speak Thai properly, it would give him more opportunities in the Thai entertainment industry. As a result, he worked hard on his Thai language skills, and his speaking improved significantly.

In 2018, he was named as one of CLEO Thailand's 50 Most Eligible Bachelors of 2018.[5] He later signed with GMMTV and his first performance was a guest role in the series Wolf (2019). In 2020, he had supporting roles in Wake Up Ladies: Very Complicated.

In 2021, he played a supporting role in Nabi, My Stepdarling. He later rose to fame for playing the lead role of Akitsuki Koji on the drama series Oh My Boss (2021), alongside Worranit Thawornwong.[6]

He also gained wider recognition for starring in the romantic comedy series My Dear Donovan (2022), alongside Tipnaree Weerawatnodom.[2]
