His mother is a Filipina caregiver working in the U.S., while his father is an American cab driver. He has three sisters.[2][3] He studied at the James Madison High School in San Antonio, Texas in the United States for his secondary education.[2] He has a degree in Education at Bethune–Cookman University and a master's degree in Human Relations at University of Oklahoma.[3]

Cray took up track and field when he was still in high school,[3] competing for the James Madison High School at the district , regional and state championships. He also competed for the Bethune-Cookman University at the NCAA of the United States.[2]

He holds dual American-Filipino dual citizenship but decided to compete for the Philippines in December 2011 upon the request of his mother. The application to compete for the Philippines was approved in 2013 by the IAAF.[3]

He set a new national record and games record in the 400 m hurdles while winning at the 2015 Southeast Asian Games, setting a time of 49.40 seconds.[4][5] Cray managed to win a bronze at the 60 m event at the 2016 Asian Indoor Athletics Championships.[6] While he only finished seventh in the 400 m hurdles semifinals at the 2016 Summer Olympics with a time of 49.37 seconds, which itself already broke his national and Southeast Asian Games record, he set a better record earlier during the Heat 4 qualifying event with a time of 49.05.

Cray won the gold medal at the 400 meter hurdles event at the 2017 Asian Athletics Championships clocking 49.57 seconds ending his country's 8 year gold drought in the continental tournament.[7]
