Goodall’s life-changing win has made some wonder if he’ll leave his day job to dive into an entertainment career. During NBC Insider‘s chat with Goodall, it was clear that he’s still on cloud nine following his AGT win and happily juggling his janitor gig with his budding music career.
“I’m still at the school, but things are going on behind the scenes, you know, some concerts are popping up,” Goodall told us. “I’m actually leaving tomorrow for Riverside, California, to do a festival lights thing… A lot of amazing things are just popping up, and so I’ll continue to work at the school until, you know, I can’t anymore.”
