Early life and career transition from Virginia to Hollywood
Born July 24, 1979, in Danville, Virginia, Young was the middle child of three siblings.

Young changed his career path after early success in the entertainment industry. “L.A. was just the place where I could make those decisions with all the job opportunities the town offered,” he said in a 2015 interview. “In the first month here, I went out on my first audition for a TV series, booked it, joined the Screen Actors Guild, and the rest was history.”
“I absolutely fell in love with everything in this business and the journey and strength it takes to accomplish what you want in it,” Young added.
Young is survived by his brother Chris. Memorial arrangements will be announced at a later date.
