Elliott’s parents were from El Paso, Texas, and he has a grandfather who served in the Battle of San Jacinto as a surgeon. When he was 13 years old, his family relocated from California to Portland, Oregon.
He always talked about becoming an actor but his father disagreed with him and advised him to get a college degree rather because he thought it would be hard for Elliott to make a name in Hollywood.
