Overview

My comedy can be described as confessional and raw. My comedy album, About Time, was listed in the Top 10 Canadian Comedy Albums of 2022 (Glenn Sumi, Now Magazine) by a “Queer first-generation Canadian Disruptor” & “a rare talent” (Parton and Pearl) and “your new favourite non-binary, pansexual, South Asian, Muslim comedian” (CBC Arts)!

I've been on Just For Laughs Toronto, am Second City trained, and since 2012 have been producing hit shows such as Asian Comedy All-Stars, MuJew (A Muslim and Jewish comedy showcase), Gaysian Comedy All-Stars (the world’s FIRST all-Queer, all-Asian comedy showcase).

Rush Is Always Funny!

Rush would often do The Joke Show a pro/am mic in Toronto that i co produced. Such a great story teller and always creative. I quote often one of the songs she pulled out one night...chorus "That's When I Get Ghosted". So great. And hustles like no other!!!

Rush Crushed!

I booked Rush for an anniversary show in November 2022 at Comedy Bar, and they absolutely killed. The audience, which ranged from young queers to retired cops, were laughing the whole time. Rush was blast, and a pleasure to work with. Professional all the way, very supportive, and quick to answer. I hope we can do this again.

What to expect

I am not only a stand up comedian, but a very experienced producer of stand up, sketch, and musical comedy shows. I can also be hired to host your improv shows, karaoke nights, or any sort of games nights such as trivia or bingo, or whatever you would want a funny host for! You can expect a host that is on time, and is charming and can keep the flow of a show, karaoke night, or game night moving well.
