About Me

CURRENT MISSION

A standup comic trying to make his way into the world. I want to connect with and introduce myself to as many people as I can. I love making people laugh on and off stage although I am shy at first. I love my gf Michelle and I love to travel!

ABOUT ME

I am a comedian. I have opened for April Macie, Dan Cummins, Donnell Rawlings, John Evans, Mike Merryfield, Mike Malone and many more great comedians. I love the Beatles! I was in a band for 10 years before starting comedy.

PHILOSOPHY

Bill Hicks said it best:

"The world is like a ride at an amusement park. And when you choose to go on it, you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. And the ride goes up and down and round and round. It has thrills and chills and it's very brightly colored and it's very loud and it's fun, for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time, and they begin to question: Is this real, or is this just a ride? And other people have remembered, and they come back to us, they say, 'Hey – don't worry, don't be afraid ever, because this is just a ride ...' And we ... kill those people. Ha ha, 'Shut him up. We have a lot invested in this ride. Shut him up. Look at my furrows of worry. Look at my big bank account and my family. This just has to be real.' It's just a ride. But we always kill those good guys who try and tell us that, you ever notice that? And let the demons run amok. But it doesn't matter, because – it's just a ride. And we can change it anytime we want. It's only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings and money. A choice, right now, between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love instead see all of us as one. Here's what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride. Take all that money we spend on weapons and defenses each year and instead spend it feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would pay for many times over, not one human being excluded--NOT ONE, and we could explore space, together, both inner and outer, forever... in peace."
