  • In 2011, Edison began his entertainment career in reality television, where he was sent all over the country to audition wealthy families in hopes of finding the next Kardashians.

Outside of entertainment, Edison writes and curates a personal substack about cancer awareness and patient advocacy through narrative nonfiction.
