Florizoone was born in the coastal town of Ostend. He became a fan of all things performing arts at a young age, and his mother enrolled him in local ballet classes. It was then suggested he audition for the Royal Ballet School of Antwerp, where he would attend as a boarding student. He went on to study Musical Theatre at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels, but withdrew two years into the course to make time for ROX.[2]
In 2011, Florizoone starred as the main character of Pim in the Flemish drama film North Sea Texas. The film follows the story of Pim, a boy living with his reckless mother, who falls in love with his male best friend, Gino. Later, he starred in the children's superhero drama ROX (2011–present), which revolves around three young heroes with exceptional talents and an exceptional car called ROX.

In September 2015 he was first seen as Guido Van Den Bossche, a main role in VTM's soap opera Familie, being the fourth actor in a row performing this character. After some months he decided to quit the soap at end of season's finale in June 2016. He was succeeded by Vincent Banic.
