Criss is not the only celebrity on Rollins’ roster of clients.

According to his LinkedIn profile, Rollins has served as a manager at Hyphenate Creative Management since June 2016. He wrote in his job description, “We manage the creative endeavors of actors and musicians that inspire us.”

Based on the Hyphenate website, those inspiring stars include Criss’ former “Glee” co-star, Becca Tobin, and former “Harry Potter” star, Evanna Lynch.

As Criss referenced, Rollins is a family man. He lives in California with his wife Amanda. The couple married in September 2012.

Together they welcomed daughter Ruby in 2016. While he stays largely private about his family, he did joke on Instagram that Ruby could be the “Future Class Clown of 2034.”

It only takes a few scrolls through Rollins’ Instagram to discover his signature pose: jumping. He documents his many leaps, often using the hashtag “#rickyjumpsoverstuff.”

And he takes his high-flying ways on the road. Some of his state-side travels include Chicago, Florida, New York and Nevada.

Just a hop and a skip away were his adventures in Ireland, Switzerland, Mexico, Australia and Canada.

Rollins even makes sure to include Criss in some of the jumps. At the “American Crime Story” alum’s wedding, his manager even leaped over the newlyweds.
