Biography

Originally from Texas, McKinley graduated from the University of Southern California where he studied Acting and Communication. Known to many for his irresistibly hued eyes, charming smile, and infectious personality, he made a name for himself in the world of professional fashion modeling and is poised to be Hollywood's next break-out star.

Often referred to as a Jesse Williams prototype, McKinley is quickly becoming a sought-after brand and making a name for himself all his own. McKinley played the lead role of Ezekiel in "Power in The Blood" at the Wright Act Repertory Theatre in Hollywood and starred in various short films before his modeling career landed him at agencies and bookings across the country. Never one to hide his feelings and humanitarian in nature, McKinley is a respected advocate for mental health, diversity, equity and inclusion and rights for all people of difference. A viral social media sensation, McKinley has proven himself with far more substance to offer than the value of his looks and the public is responding.

McKinley is also on On-Camera Talk Show Host. With an edge, magnetism and relatability all his own, McKinley brings his sharp, inspiring, entertaining, communication skills to life in his online talk show series, where he covers a variety of topics and expresses feelings about topics ranging from lifestyle to culture, arts and entertainment, politics, education, business, leadership and social change.

Birthed during the pandemic and originally created on Instagram, titled "Real Talk With McKinley," the new incarnation of his talk series plays off his mixed race and mixed feelings that many of us experience as we try to make sense the world around us, our new normal, and move forward a more united and empathetic world community. Featuring a stellar line-up of celebrity guests, and other verified and noteworthy personalities, the show is hotly anticipated. A buzz-worthy yet mysterious personality in his own right, it is no surprise that he continues to captivate the attention and unrelenting curiosity of online audiences and TV network executives alike.
