Physical Characteristics

Meet the Act

I feel I'm a professional at all times who treats people the way I want to be treated, from the staff to the club owner. I tend to be quiet and easy going offstage or off camera. I feel we are all in collaboration whether it's a live show or a film project. I take direction well and can fit my stage act to a very wide variety of situations. I like to know as much possible about any gig so I can do me research if needed and show up prepared. I like to get to a gig early and soak in my surroundings, sometimes before I even meet anyone. To me it's all about the way you treat people.

Additional Information

Between Stand-up, Acting and Improvisation ( I've done all threes professionally), I believe I've become a well rounded entertainer. I can fit my show to a variety of situations, I recently hosted a live gameshow at The Asher Theatre in Myrtle Beach Called "After the I Dos" which was a combination of all these attributes and more. I have also hosted Trivia, Bingo, a web series and 3 radio shows.

Virtual Services Offer
