Jackson's first steps into showbiz began with a three-year stint as Young Simba in Disney's Tony Award®-winning Broadway National tour of The Lion King. Following that success, he made his transition to television appearing on shows such as the SyFy original series Eureka, CBS' Criminal Minds, Disney Channel's blockbuster hit Let It Shine, as well as Harry's Law for which he received the 2012 Young Artists Award in the category of "Best Performance in a TV Series – Guest Starring Young Actor 14-17".
