He uses personal stories and observations to explore the dispiriting process of growing up and growing older. Alternately dark and optimistic, he rattles off deadpan jokes on topics ranging from raising multiethnic children to open relationships to pizza. He got his start in the rural potato town of Rexburg, ID at a little show called Sit Down For Stand Up. He subsequently spent time in the Cleveland, OH comedy scene and was a featured performer at Make ‘Em Laugh Mondays. He has opened for comedians such as Bill Squire, Ramon Rivas II, and Derek Sheen."
