Riley Halden (born July 15 1986) is an American/Canadian actor, writer, and business entrepreneur, most recently known for his role in the development of Project 730 (2012) and other roles including The Gambler (2015) and Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015). Born Riley Jacob Halden in Laguna Hills, California, Halden was relocated to Toronto, Ontario, Canada at the age of 6 to attend the Upper Canada College (UCC) private school for boys where he excelled in his studies. At the age of 12, Halden moved on to Cornell University in Ithaca, New York to pursue an Ivy league education in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering. Graduating with his Bachelors in Science and Engineering at the tender age of 15, Halden moved to the City of New York, where he attended Columbia University to complete a Masters in Business Administration. In 2000, Halden launched his first entrepreneurial project, Sinistral Web Designs which gained major traction with clients such as Lexus Canada and Ford Motors. The company was eventually dissolved to pursue other ventures. In 2002, Halden launched a private consulting firm, Halden Analytics, working with such clients as Scotiabank, Ford, GM, Walmart, Bank of America, Chase, Wells Fargo, Canadian Tire, Second Cup, Cineplex, Microsoft, Toys R Us, Grand & Toy, BestBuy, Zellers, Whole Foods, CVS, Bank of Montreal, SMT Direct Marketing, Target, MTS, and Airtel. Halden was diagnosed with a rare cancer of the adrenal gland in 2010. Having endured aggressive radiation therapy, Halden stepped away from his business enterprises to begin his journey around the world with a backpack and a camera, Project 730, which would later be rebranded as PUSH Travels after a second and successful battle with cancer in 2012. With the assistance of corporate sponsorship, PUSH Travels has contributed to many registered charities including but not limited to Kids Help Phone (Canada), Sick Kids Hospital (Toronto), and St. Joseph's Hospital (Toronto). Halden's determination to push forward led him to Europe where he continued his journey working with charity. He has since returned to Toronto where he is undergoing post cancer treatment counselling for mental health and continues his charitable efforts from home. Halden continues to work with additional upcoming films, both independent and for the big screen. He has also committed to continuing his travels in 2014 and 2015.
