By the time AJ was in sixth grade, he had appeared in twenty-seven productions. And in Junior High, he won the part on Nickelodeon's Hi Honey, I'm Home. During that time, A.J. took classes in dancing, singing, and acting-he knew what he wanted to do. Of course it all clicked when he met up with Nick and Howie.
Most of A.J.'s fans know he is very close to his mom, Denise. As a matter of fact, many of them have
probably seen her and don't even realize it! Denise began traveling with AJ
when he first started with the group, because he was under eighteen.
