Avi Nash

Nash was born in the United States, his father is Guyanese and his mother is from Mumbai. Nash started acting in senior year of high school off a dare to audition for the school play; prior to this, he identified primarily as a visual artist. Nash began attending Stanford University when he was 17 years old, performing with the Stanford Shakespeare Company. He was classmates with Young the Giant's Sameer Gadhia, who encouraged Nash to seriously pursue acting dropping out himself to pursue a professional music career. So, after freshman year, Nash left Stanford to attend acting school under Anupam Kher at Actor Prepares in Mumbai for six months. However, he returned to complete his degree, citing conflicting feelings between his various interests. He returned to Stanford University and majored in Mathematical and Computational Sciences while studying architecture.
