Cognata attended the Boston Arts Academy (2006) where he majored in theatre.[6] In 2008, Cognata made his television debut in a national commercial for Subway[citation needed] and performed with the poetic entertainment group called ARTiculation.[7] The Boston Herald writes in a 2009 article, "Give the creativity and enthusiasm of this highly talented group of young poets a chance. Their performance is good enough to make even a cynic believe in the power of art."[8] Cognata then moved to New York City and Los Angeles to obtain television roles including Julian Robbins, brother-in-law to battalion chief Wallace Boden on NBC's Chicago Fire (2018), and recurring as Tito, Lip's intern on Showtime's Shameless (2016).[9][10] He appeared in Hallmark's Romance at Reindeer Lodge (2017).[11] In addition to his work in film and TV,[12] Cognata represented his hometown in the Edinburgh Festival Fringe (2006), where he performed the play A More Perfect Union.[13][14][15]
