A 2006 graduate, Belcher graduated from Belmont with a B.A. in communication studies and a minor in political science. He didn’t start acting until he was convinced by a theater friend who  to audition for “Raisin in the Sun” while still at Belmont. Even though his interest in theater didn’t evolve until college, Belcher said his time on Belmont’s speech and debate team helped develop the creativity he needed to begin his career.
