A native of Chicago, Illinois, TC grew up as an only child. He was raised by his beloved mother in the LeClaire Courts projects.

A trained dancer and an Emmy Award-winning actor, TC was encouraged by his family to become an artist. He has performed in iconic plays, musicals, and tour productions from "The Wiz" and "Sesame Street Live" to "Dreamgirls", "Ain't Misbehavin", and "Blackberry Daze". He is best known for portraying Kyle Barker on the FOX sitcom, Living Single; voicing Mace Windu on Star Wars: The Clone Wars; and his long-running voicing of Kratos in the God of War video game series. He is known to a new generation of fans as a recurring guest star on the Oprah Winfrey Network's mystery drama series, Greenleaf; voicing Samuel in the PBS Kids animated series Clifford the Big Red Dog; and as guest star on The CW's superhero drama series, Black Lightning, and CMT's musical soap opera series, Nashville. He appears as Marcus Elkins in the films A Wesley Christmas (2022), A Wesley Christmas Wedding (2023), A Wesley South African Christmas (2024).
A gifted vocalist, TC has the vocal range of Al Jarreau and the percussive skill of Bobby McFerrin, two artists he admires. His recordings and live performances offer an eclectic mix of classics and new grooves, each with his signature sound. From soaring falsetto to velvety, rich baritone, his vocal artistry tells stories about loving and living.
