What to expect

I can produce a variety of types of shows for you that is custom to what you are looking for at your event.

Also, I can do a variety show if you desire. I can include acts such as improv and music along with stand-up comedy.

About

I am originally from Michigan and have lived in Chicago over 10 years (doing comedy).
Currently, I am currently based out of L.A. but travel for comedy all over & back to Chicago frequently.

I have a wide variety of stories from my large number of adventures, travel and hobbies.

I am an avid snowboarder, soccer player, skateboarder (longboard), and krav maga martial arts.

I have a radio show that features hip-hop, and indie rock from all over the world. I have a passion for punk rock and I enjoy most music genres and dabble in playing guitar. I have produced/ booked musicians and comedians for events.

I have Emceed events such as "Fall Fest" at an equestrian center and I can host variety shows and announce for events.

I have done many charity events and fundraisers for different organizations and LGBTQIA+ organizations.

Additional booking notes

I have a speaker and microphone but if you have a sound system or speakers we can use those. I can bring a small spot light and some party lights or we can adjust the lighting at your event space or home. I am flexible to your needs.

I can custom my comedy sets for any audience. I can do a wide range of material from story telling adventures, fast jokes, silly tales, nerdy bits, or jokes for a group ready to party.

My material can range from PG to R Rated too. I am usually PG-13 unless needed to be more clean or more rated R for the event.

Influences and inspiration

Currently, some of my favorite stand-up comics are: Maria Bamford, Dwayne Kennedy, Stuart Huff, Roy Wood Jr., Hannibal Burress (I have opened up for him twice), and Lil Rel Howery (who I opened for at Laugh Factory), Doug Benson, Laurie Kilmartin, Pat McGan (I opened for at Zanies) and Judah Friedlander (I opened for many times).
