Born in Galway, Ireland, Gavin emigrated with his family to Lexington, Kentucky at age 10 where he began acting in theater, at first apparently, rather reluctantly by his teachers orders at school, to channel his over exuberant "enthusiasm" ,then after embracing the outlet, on to acclaimed performances at the Kentucky Center for the Performing Arts. Gavin moved to Florida as a teen, where he went on to study theater at renowned University of Florida School of Fine Arts. Gavin then moved to Los Angeles where he has advanced his career steadily, starring in commercials, then television, both drama and comedy, and most recently to his ultimate goal of cutting edge Independent feature films, often exploiting his Irish background along the way.
