ABC’s “Grey’s Anatomy” star Jesse Williams stopped by “The View” earlier today. Watch the candid interview and find out 5 things you may not have known about the sexy actor inside…

Hottie Jesse Williams appeared on “The View” earlier today and shared a few things you may have not known about him.  And if you thought he was just a pretty face, he's ot an equally sexy mind to go along with all of that.

1.  He has a degree in African American Studies.  The 32-year-old is an alum of Temple University in Philadelphia.

2.  He was a high school teacher.  Jesse became a high school teacher post graduation. He recently revealed he did commercials in college.  It was when he reached out to his commercial agent again when he was finally booked on "Law & Order" and "Grey's".

3.  He wanted to be a lawyer: If he wasn’t successful in acting, Jesse says he would have gone to law school.

4.  He’s joining President Obama for his historic African American male initiative program: Jesse is teaming up with President Obama for the My Brother’s Keeper Initiative. He spoke passionately about the statistics that work against young men of color saying 50% of Americans under the age of 25 are of color, and having them tap into their potential is crucial for our future. The Initiative is raising money to improve educational opportunities for young men of color.  He jetted off to The White House right after his interview this morning for an event with the Initiative where he spoke with the parents of Trayvon Martin and Jordan Davis, as well as an appearance on CNN's "Situation Room" (pictured above)!

5.  He pops up at MANY Hollywood events, but he'd rather spend his time with a little girl who can't even speak yet: Jesse has a 2-month-old daughter named Sadie. He revealed she was the greatest Christmas present and he wants to spend as much time as he can "chillin' at home" with her and wife, Aryn Drake-Lee.

Check out Jesse's interview with the ladies on ‘The View’ below:
