Comedy has been my passion for as long as I can remember. I genuinely believe that it is a blessing to "make people laugh and then make'em laugh some more". My gift/talent has allowed me to do this in countless places across the country & Europe (3 times) and I look forward to doing the same for your audience(s). Yeah, I know, I'm not someone most people even imagine seeing on a comedy stage. Yet, I promise you, they soon won't forget the fun time they will have laughing at my style of comedy. My comedy comes from a place that allows me to "WOW" with laughter yet leave positive messages along the way. My tagline says the "Gentleman Outlaw of Comedy", there is a lot of truth to that. I can tone it up or tone it down to suit my audience. This has allowed me the opportunity to perform for all types of audiences. One of my favorite things about doing comedy is being invited back repeatedly to the same venues because of the love I have for them and the love they have for my comedy.
So, let's book some dates and have a wonderful time!
