Cast of "Full House"Other than his role as Nicky Katsopolis, which he reprised in a cameo on Fuller House in 2016, Tuomy-Wilhoit has done a majority of his work behind the scenes. He has served as a foley mixer on several movies and TV series. Most recently, he worked on World of Warcraft: Dragonflight in 2022.
