A Chicago-native, he is the son of Julie Greenberg and Jeff Jenkins, a former Ringling clown. Jenkins made his performing debut at the age of three as an acrobat performing handstands on his father’s hands in his family’s theatrical circus company called Midnight Circus. Being the natural performer he is, it only made sense to take his talents on camera, bringing a deep sensitivity to his roles.
Despite all his on-camera success, each year, Jenkins - his sister Samantha, Mom, Dad, his two rescued Pit Bulls, and a dozen world-class acrobats - tour Chicago in an intimate big top playing neighborhood parks from the south side to the north side and all points in between. The show brings communities together while raising funds to rebuild local parks. In 2014, Jenkins was part of the troupe as they made history as the first and only American troupe ever to be featured in the prestigious Montreal Circus Festival.
Jenkins is also an avid snowboarder and soccer player.
