== Biographical information ==
Eisen was born in Stamford, Connecticut, in 1993 and attended Westhill High School. He was active as an actor and voice actor until 2008, and subsequently attended Syracuse University from 2011 to 2015, majoring in Television-Radio-Film at the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications. During his time at Syracuse, he worked as a video editor for Fe Fe Entertainment, a desk writer for WAER Sports Radio, and as co-executive producer on the TV series Loud and Clear. After graduating, he worked as a production assistant for a number of companies, including NBCUniversal Inc., Funny or Die, and Boy Wonder Productions, before joining mass media company Condé Nast in September 2016 as a videographer.
Eisen keeps his social media private and for many years kept himself hidden from the public eye, until June 2020 when he participated in an interview on the Ted Jones World podcast. Eisen, who related he was in the process of rewatching the series at the time, discussed his former career at length as well as his feelings on the resurgence of Avatar following its release on Netflix. In December of the same year he participated in Dante Basco's Twitch-stream rewatch of "Sozin's Comet", which was his first public appearance with members of the cast since the end of the original series.
