Thanks for the memories 🫶🏻✨

A week ago I closed a very important chapter in my life. So many different ways to recognize this crossed my mind, but I couldn’t figure out how I could possibly narrow down the last almost 8 years into just a few photos… so I figured I’d just include all of them 🤣

SeaWorld came into my life at a time when I desperately needed it. I had just moved from Texas to pursue performing, and SeaWorld gave me that for the first time. Not only did it become that outlet for me, it became my safe place, a second home when I was so far away from mine, a place where I could be me. It was where I grew up, where I learned how to perform, how to lead, how to create, and honestly how to become the person I am today. So much of who I am today exists because of the experiences I had here and the people I was lucky enough to share them with.

There were so many moments over the years that made this place special. The numerous shows I was fortunate enough to be part of, the never ending rehearsals, the LONG 15+ hour days, the laughs so hard you can’t breathe, the moments inside or outside of work (whether good or bad) where the people here still showed up for you anyway. Through every high and every low, there was always an incredible team of people beside me. That’s what I’ll always be most grateful for.

Deciding to leave was incredibly difficult because this chapter meant so much to me, but I’m also really excited for what’s next. I get to take every lesson, every memory, every friendship, and every bit of creativity I found here into the next chapter of my life and career. And if these years taught me anything, it’s how important real people, real artistry, and real talent, hard work, and creativity are.
In a world slowly becoming full of things that aren’t exactly genuine… I’ll forever be thankful I got to spend almost a decade surrounded by the most genuinely talented people who created some real magic together. (So support the content created by those REAL people!!)

Thank you, SeaWorld. Thank you to every single person I crossed paths with there, those who made these memories worth having. I’ll cherish this chapter with me forever 💙 2026 by @waitjake

Before I say anything else, I need to give a huge thank you to the people who made this possible.

Thank you to the AMAZING @rickystahl & @jaackssonn_ for jumping on board with my crazy idea. Getting to create this with two insanely talented humans was such a joy. ⭐️

Thank you to the INCREDIBLE @sublimeimage for bringing your talent to this project . Every shot you see was filmed by him (and they look stunning, if I do say so myself 🤩).

And of course, thank you to @stephituppp, who is always my biggest supporter and never hesitates to help me bring these wild ideas to life. This truly wouldn’t have seen the light of day without you.

As we wrap up 2025, I’m so excited to finally share my next project. A few months back, I pitched a fun little idea to Ricky and Tae, “Hey! Let’s do a cover of “Golden” as an all-male trio.”Fast forward to now, and after a lot of hard work, that idea has finally become a reality.

Last year, I made a promise to myself to lean more into my creativity outside of work, and this project was a reminder of how much joy that brings me. Creating, producing, and performing are things I’m incredibly passionate about, and getting to combine all of them for this was truly special.

I hope you enjoy this as much as we enjoyed making it.
Thank you again to everyone who helped make this happen. 💛

Surpriseeeee 🎁✨
Been keeping this one pretty under wraps (no pun intended 😉)
Truly beyond excited to share that I’ve joined the cast of Disney - Holidays in Hollywood at Jollywood Nights this year!!!

There’s a special kind of magic in realizing how far you’ve come without even noticing when it happened.

Every challenge, every stumble, every push to keep going, and every quiet day of work when no one was watching…
Getting to moments like these isn’t easy. You just keep telling yourself to stay persistent even when it’s hard.

I’m so proud of the version of me who once only dreamed of this and kept going until it became real.

It’s truly an honor to spend my favorite time of year surrounded by such a talented cast. ✨💛 taken in Disney's Hollywood Studios by @waitjake
