[edit] Character
J.T. is an apprentice detective working for private investigator Paul Williams (Doug Davidson) and is currently dating Colleen Carlton (Adrianne Leon).
In high school, J.T. was friends with Billy Abbott (David Tom), Raul Guittierez (David Lago), Mackenzie Browning (then played by Ashley Bashioum) and Rianna Miner (Rianna Loving). At the time he was dating Brittany Hodges (then played by Vanessa Lee Evigan) and had a reputation as a ladies' man. When Brittany (Lauren Woodland) dumped J.T. for wealthy Jabot heir Billy, he rebounded onto Rianna, who he treated poorly. They broke up shortly after.
J.T. soon began a relationship with new-in-town Colleen Carlton (Lyndsy Fonseca). Colleen was heartbroken when J.T. had a one night stand with Brittany's mother, Anita (Mitzi Kapture-Donahue), but they eventually reconciled. When Colleen felt she was getting in the way of J.T.'s budding music career, she left Genoa City and a heartbroken J.T.
J.T. took up with Mackenzie (Rachel Kimsey), but when Colleen (now played by Adrianne Leon) returned to town and complicated matters, a broken-hearted Mac left town. After a one-night stand with Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle), J.T. reconciled with Colleen.
