Ayaan Diop made his Broadway debut as Carson in Schmigadoon!, having previously played the role in the musical's pre-Broadway engagement at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C.

Despite his young age, Diop has amassed credits across television, film, and voiceover work. His television appearances include Blaze and the Monster Machines, The Doctor Is In, and Wonder Pets: In the City, along with guest spots on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and Today. He has provided voiceover work for Nickelodeon, Netflix, and YouTube, and is the inspiration for two children's books: I Am Smart, I Am Blessed, I Can Do ANYTHING! and I Am Amazing!.
