We love when local people have BIG career moves and that includes Blake Stadnik!

Blake is originally from Beaver County and now is one of the main actors on one of our favorite shows, THIS IS US!

Taking on the role of Jack Damon, a visually impaired struggling singer/song writer, Blake talked to the Y'd Awake Morning Show about his own struggles of growing up visually impaired and how it helped him to find his true passion, being in the spotlight with dancing, singing and acting.

I also grilled Blake to see if we could get any spoilers about what we should be expecting from this season.. Listen to all the juicy details Blake told us about his role and what's to come of this season!

NEW FAVORITE ACTOR ON THIS IS US!
