Speaking on the TVC segment, Seven of Seven, the actor explained his reason for the career switch, emphasizing that he left the banking industry to discover his identity and true calling. Banking was not fulfilling for him, so he decided to leave and return home.
He began, “Working in a bank in America was something that I had to do after school but switching was something I had to do in pursuit of my self discovery and what I wanted to be in life. You know I couldn’t settle for that nine to five lifestyle, I wanted to find and create myself.”
When asked to give advice to people considering a similar career switch, the actor comically exclaimed: “Ah” before saying, “you have to have some balls, ah you have to stay determined. With that, you can achieve anything you set your mind to. My entire family lives there. I have friends there and I grew up there. So it’s not like I went to America to work. I was raised in America, in Chicago to be precise. So sometimes I go back to connect.”
