Known for his mastery of face, character, and intricate lip-sync, Isaiah is a bright star on the horizon. Johnny Nuriel illuminates the stage with a light all his own.

He is known for his ability to fuse these disciplines seamlessly. With their powers combined, Isaiah Esquire and Johnny Nuriel are IZOHNNY.
