He was born on July 5, 1993 in Cortez Colorado to Stacey Kawaykla and Gordon Wetselline Sr., and was later adopted by William and Linda Pruitt. He grew up in Elk City, Oklahoma attended school there and later on obtained his GED in 2013. He traveled to visit family back in Anadarko to get to know his Apache family. Phillip had a loving and kind spirit about him, very respectful and kind to all who met him.

He loved working as a tire technician and took pride in his work.

When he wasn't working, he enjoyed fishing, taking nature walks with his kids, riding roller coasters, and cooking for his family and get togethers. He loved spending time outdoors and making special memories with his family. Phillip took in a young toddler named Cassius as his own in 2015. He later then met the love of his life, Megan Frost, and the two were married on July 27, 2019, in Rio Rancho, New Mexico. They welcomed two children in this union; Rowin (2020) and Onalea (2022). They all shared a life filled with love and family memories. As a family they would travel to Colorado to attend Megan's cultural and traditional gatherings. She would often tease him about dancing in the annual Beardance in Towaoc, Colorado.
