He usually wears casual clothing, mostly t-shirts and jeans, paired with a flashy watch and or neck chain to show off and peacock.
=== Personality ===
Unlike his best friend Brad, Beck is a brash and bold personality. Often loud and prone to crass humor, Beck can be the life of the party at times, but often at somebody's expense, especially Noemi's. He is also hyper-competitive when it comes to playing games, which also clashes with Noemi's own competitiveness. 
Beck has a keen interest in cars, especially his own, and especially good looking one. To beck, style and flash means as much as substance, and while he likes to think of himself as a happenin' bachelor and player, he's not much of a hit with the ladies in general. He's been called a "player f---boy wannabe" a few times in his days.Stated by Kelsey Matthews in Noemi's Toscana Rebirth

== Key Personal Relationships ==
=== Bradley Fischer (Best Friend) ===
Brad is Beck's best friend in the whole world, and has been since their days in high school together. "Bradley and Beckett" is what they call their team. Together they share an interest in cars and sports, to a lesser extent music too, and in girls to an extent that Brad doesn't quite realize. Over the years they have developed a strong friendship within their share group of buddies, and the two where an important part of each other's transition through adulthood in their college days. However, thanks to Beck's prickly personality, they have often had fights or times when they harass each other, even getting into loud fights on occasion, but thankfully never devolving to violence. Many of these fights were over Brad's now fiancee Noemi and how Beck treats her, even when she is right there with them. As Brad and Noe's relationship has deepened over the years, Beck has slowly come to see it as his responsibility to protect his buddy from making a mistake in marrying her, though it would seem those feelings are misplaced affection and desire of his own for Noemi.
=== Noemi Bellocchio (Rival) ===
Noemi is the fiancee of Beck's best friend Brad, and a thorn in his side. The two have a long-term rivalry over his attentions, which has become angry and even toxic at times with Brad caught in the middle and not wanting to alienate either one. They go so far as to not even refer to each other by first name despite knowing each other for over 10 years, instead he calls her "Glassy" and she in return only calls him "Leech". As it turns out, much of the taunting and aggression on Beck's part is frustration that Noemi has never shown any interest in him before, and he secretly still resents the fact that Brad met her first by "being a little panty wearer" and learning to cook, so that he never had a chance to date her himself.Stated by Beckett Leech in Noemi's Toscana Rebirth Now that Noe and Brad are getting married, which puts Beck on the back foot in their rivalry, he's taken it upon himself to try break up the pair while trying to get himself some action with her after harbouring unrequited feelings (especially lust) for her for so long.
== Backstory ==
=== Early Years & Teens ===
Beck has always been the loud and brashy sort, but in school he was the weedy kid instead of the jock. Despite enjoying sports he wasn't big or brawny and so didn't get on many teams after his little league days, but that never stopped him enjoying the show. Among the less-than-cool kids he was pretty popular though, given he would always try make jokes and play about. It was this lighthearted nature that cemented the bond between him and his then-to-be best friend Bradly Fischer in their joint pursuit to survive the perils of High school. However, it wasn't always rosy days for the young Beckster, as the pressure to always be the funny guy and never being on the sports team but in the bleachers weight on him, making him the semi-insecure man he is now.
=== College Life ===
Post-school, both Beck and Brad went off to college, with two completely different experiences. While Brad busted his ass in culinary school, Beck was coasting by and enjoying the prime of his life. Having grown up some since school, he was doing better socially by now, aided by a new set of friends and a reinvention of his class clown persona into a laddish batter kind of guy. Both he and Brad still made plenty of time for each other when they could, and Noemi was always right there with them too, which irked him a lot. Tensions really began to flair as Brad's limited time was pulled between having a fulfilling romance and plenty of intimacy with Noemi, or making time for Beck who saw Noe has being with him all day everyday, even being in the same classes as him. Eventually Beck graduated (barely) with a degree in sports journalism after switching majors several times. 
=== Post College Life and New Restaurant ===
After graduation, Beck went to work in a few odd jobs while he tried to get the attention of papers and publications who might take him on as a writer-analyst for them. His goal was to get himself a spot as a TV commentator someday, or at least get himself in as a PR guy with one of the major Philadelphia sports teams. In the meantime, Brad came to him for advice on whether to take his dream job in a big name New York restaurant or stay and help Noe with the restaurant she was just gifted, "Little Toscana". He went against Beck's advice, which for a time left a little schism between the buddies, and only made Noe that much more angry with him. They eventually put it behind them, renewing their efforts to spend guy time together with weekly poker nights and occasional nights out drinking or playing sports, but Noe kept her distance from Beck as best she could, until their competitive rivalry took off again as a way for her to work out her business frustrations at Salvatore Baines and her mounting debt.

==== Noemi's Toscana Rebirth (NTR) ====
Beck is one of the major male characters of the beWilder game Noemi's Toscana Rebirth
 (NTR), having his own arc in the game. His part in the game is mostly an antagonist to Noemi on her days off, driving her more competitive instincts to new heights, which while helpful in keeping her business in fighting spirit, also leads her feel compelled to do things she otherwise wouldn't if she were being rational, like take on bets of a sexual nature behind her hubby's back.
Although Beck does initially try to make a truce with her, Noe knows him too well to think he'll change in the long run, and that scorning drives Beck to push her harder as well as damage her relationship with Brad where he can. Their relationship is one of hate-fxxxing, without any love lost between them.
Beck also bumps heads with Kelsey Matthews, one of Noe's waitresses, by dissing her precious WV Bug as he tries to rile up Noe for more bets, creating a triangular dynamic between the 3 that is still playing out.
