About SRJ

Steven Roderick Jurich is an American actor drawn to stories that explore truth, resilience, and the space between control and chaos. A lifelong athlete and entrepreneur, he brings discipline, curiosity, and emotional honesty to every role.

Authenticity is his word of the decade—a reminder to stay true to how he’s made and who he is. Stories excite him. People intrigue him. Learning is life, and growth is the goal. He listens, watches, and looks deeper to find what’s real. Acting, to him, isn’t about pretending—it’s about living truthfully in someone else’s shoes, seeking understanding rather than judgement.

Why “SRJ”?

Steven Roderick Jurich, also known as “SRJ” or “Surge”, goes by his full name to honor his roots. He is the third Steve on his dad’s side, but was given his maternal grandfathers name as his middle name. This means he’s not a “third”, but instead carries the first names of both his grandfathers and the first name of his father. To honor his family, his roots, and their desire to make him unique, he proudly uses his full name professionally — though most of his friends just know him as Steve.

“Live in the present, appreciate the moment, capture it… Because you never know when you could be making history.”
