Personal life

Finley was raised in Scarborough, Maine, a coastal town seven miles south of Portland. His father is part-owner of the Dry Dock pub and restaurant on Portland's waterfront. After high school, Finley enrolled in a restaurant management program at Johnson & Wales University in Rhode Island, but his academics suffered due to a large abscess in his throat. Finley required emergency treatment and lost about 60 pounds in the process. In order to cope, Finley watched movies and tv shows, and decided to become an actor. At age 19, Finley moved to Los Angeles.{{cite web |last1=ROUTHIER |first1=RAY |title=Look at this Scarborough native now |url=https://www.pressherald.com/2014/05/18/look_at_him_now_/ |website=pressherald.com |ref=4 |format=Online News Archive}}
