Luke Jacobz

Luke Jacobz was born in Sydney on February 14, 1981. Growing up in the suburbs and attending Crestwood Primary and Crestwood High School, Luke showed an interest in sports and performing arts at an early age and had an agent by his early teens.

Completing drama study at both school and private tuition, Luke has appeared in several commercials and guest roles in long-running Seven soapie Home and Away. When he turned 17 (1998) Luke gave up a plumbing apprenticeship for his life-long ambition of being an actor and landed his full-time acting gig as Zac Croft in Heartbreak High.

After wrapping up his role in Heartbreak High, Luke became a jack-of-all-trades, working in a café, retail and also the hospitality industry. Taking his love of travel and meeting people he also managed a youth hostel. In August 2000 he travelled extensively through Europe and the United Kingdom.

Having the gift of the gab scored him a job as a promotional representative for the Pepsi Taste Challenge campaign in the summer of 1999-2000 and led him to the hosting role on Seven's children show The Big Arvo.

In 2004; Luke hosted the popular Popstars program and co-hosted Iron Man.

In 2005 Luke joined the cast of Nine's McLeod's Daughters where he plays Patrick Brewer, the brother of local vet, Dave Brewer.

Luke loves soccer, camping, exercising, wake boarding and hanging out at the beach. He is a big fan of mostly Top 40 music and loves food shopping and eating ... anything to do with food!

Luke started filming on McLeod's Daughters in the role of Patrick Brewer in 2005.

"I play Patrick Brewer — the brother of local vet, Dave Brewer. It is a great role — Patrick is an adventure-seeking and fun-loving type of guy who loves living life to the extreme says Jacobz.

Patrick is the type of guy who doesn't hang around anywhere for long — his wild, adventure-seeking side keeps him on the move, looking for his next big thrill. After an accident that leaves him temporarily blinded, he realises that having people around and belonging somewhere might not be such a bad thing and takes a job at Killarney — and that's where the fun starts!"
