Aeryck Mykel Arayuss
Aeryck Mykel Arayuss was born in Thessaloniki, Greece on January 15th,
1989. He is the only child of Nikolaus Arayuss and Laurynda Maropulos.
Aeryck's father traveled throughout Europe taking him along to learn
what it was like to live in the other countries, as well as learn to
speak the languages. Aeryck became fluent in English, Spanish, Italian,
Portuguese, French, German, and of course his native language, Greek.
In 1995, Aeryck and his parents moved to the United States and settled
in Southern California. It was just a few years before his father
missed working with his family in Greece and he returned in 1999. On
March 13th, 2001 Aeryck's father was killed in a terrible accident in
the warehouse in Athens, a business that Nikolaus' family owned and
operated for generations. Aeryck and his mother continued on as best
they could and in doing so he expressed an interest in acting/modeling.
Teaming him up with a manager that could get him to his auditions, he
was in several print ads and even a few commercials that played
nationally. Aeryck has also performed in stage productions throughout
Los Angeles, a few of them being musicals from Broadway. Unfortunately
a gap had grown between him and his mother and it was no longer
pleasant for them to remain together. At the age of 12, his manager
became his legal guardian and they have been together ever since. On
June 20th, 2006, Aeryck's mother passed away from a cerebral hemorrhage
while vacationing. He was informed by her side of the family not to
attend her funeral or memorial services.
Aeryck still has an interest in acting, but is also interested in being a pilot and is planning to attend a flight school as soon as he can convince his guardian that it's not a phase and that he will actually go through with it till the end. It's obvious to those around Aeryck that he will do great in whatever he decides to pursue. It's just a matter of it keeping his attention long enough to achieve the goal he set out for.
