He first began to develop an interest in acting by imitating his favorite film and television characters and reciting their lines along with them. He has one younger brother.[3][4]

Career[edit] Byerly began his acting career after winning first place in a national talent competition in Orlando, Florida.[5] Shortly thereafter, he booked his very first audition, making his television debut in 2011 with a guest-starring role as Skunk, the scrappy leader of a misfit basketball team on the Disney XD comedy series Zeke and Luther.[5][3] That same year, he made his feature film debut with a starring role as Nathan Vales in the supernatural horror film 11/11/11.[3]

In 2012, Byerly began a recurring role on the NBC comedy-drama series Parenthood portraying Micah Watson, a wheelchair-bound boy with spina bifida who becomes the best friend of Max Braverman (portrayed by Max Burkholder). That same year, he transitioned to work as a voice actor, voicing various roles in the video games Call of Duty: Black Ops II and Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII, as well as voicing the role of Prince Gustav on the Disney Channel animated series, Sofia the First.[3]

In 2013, Byerly became one of the principal ensemble cast members on the critically acclaimed ABC Family drama series, The Fosters.[3] On the series, Byerly portrays Jude Jacob-Foster, an abused and sensitive 12-year-old foster child who is subsequently adopted into a large blended family where he begins questioning his sexuality and the nature of his feelings for his best friend Connor (portrayed by Gavin MacIntosh).[6] In March 2014, Hollywood.com named Byerly's "heartwarming" portrayal of Jude to its list of "Favorite LGBTQ Characters on TV."[7]

Personal life[edit] Byerly's personal interests include reading mysteries and action-adventure books and solving advanced math problems, as well as playing basketball and video games.[3][4] Alongside his Fosters co-star Gavin MacIntosh, Byerly has been an outspoken advocate against school bullying, encouraging youngsters to embrace their differences and lending his support to the "Be Good to Each Other" campaign.[4][8]
