Beauchamp was born on March 31, 2000, in the city of Edmonton, Alberta and grew up in the city of St. Albert, Alberta. His father, Ron Beauchamp, is Canadian and his mother Ursula is American. He has an older brother named Jonah and a younger brother named Jaden. He began dance lessons at the age of six.[1]
Before becoming a member of the group Now United, Beauchamp was part of dance companies NXG Company and ImmaBeast. He participated in the American reality television show World of Dance season 1 as a member of ImmaBeast[2] and in season 2 as a pair with childhood friend Taylor Hatala.[3]
Beauchamp was invited to audition to be a founding member of Now United by music producer Simon Fuller in 2017.[1] Originally seeking to represent the United States (holding citizenship through his mother), he was allowed to represent Canada when Fuller learned of his background. On November 10, 2022, he announced that he would be leaving Now United to pursue a solo career; the "Forever United Tour" was his last appearance as a member.
Beauchamp and dancer Charlize Glass were featured in the music video for the song "That's What Love Is" from Justin Bieber's album Changes.[3] He is working on his debut solo album.
