After spending several years as a 7th grade public school teacher, I decided I was ready to pursue my dream of "doing anything else." Lucky for me, that something else was comedy. Its been said that I deliver edgy, hard-nosed comedy with a laid-back swagger and a giant smile. 
     People always ask why I chose to become a comic and its because the great ones are brilliant, no different than a Nobel Prize winning physicist or a Pulitzer Prize winning journalist.  They not only trick people into listening to taboo subjects but make them laugh at them.  Race, abortion, homesexuality, gender politics; all issues used by the powers that be to divide people and drive a wedge through the common man are made light of by the great ones.  The ability to speak to people and have them listen and maybe even change the ideologies to which they once held dear is amazing to me and I think it always will be. 
     My various experiences from graduate school to working as a middle school teacher allow me to touch on topics that almost all can relate to.  From my childhood in Cleveland to the current state of politics, I attempt to tackle each issue from a different angle and allow the audience to walk in my shoes, even if its one comedy set at a time.
