I am a Canadian creator passionate about making people say "hey, that was actually pretty good"! I studied film and television production, acting, improvisation, and theatre in Toronto. As for my greatest weaknesses, I've also done stand-up comedy and studied clowning. But that's way too embarrassing so I won't include it in my bio. I currently reside in my hometown of Calgary. My upcoming projects include my very own shiny sketch comedy show, and whatever else I get pulled into. Let's work and create something new together!

How can I join your sketch show as a writer or actor or angel investor or rival or in some other capacity?If you're interested in getting involved in my comedy show, please reach out on Instagram! Or send me an email if you're a more formal, Zuckerberg-despising individual. Applicants need not be funny nor must they reside in Canada. The show is currently in pre-production but several people have already vouched that it will, QUOTE, "probably be great".What are your comedic influences?I'm so glad you asked me this very normal question. I take inspiration from all the usual white comedians in the insular world of North American comedy and more. Last year the world graciously extended an opportunity for me to stay at home and watch every sketch show ever made, and judging from how often my friends have to tell me they aren't interested in my hyperspecific references to sketches no one has seen, it has definitely influenced me comedically. I also got left alone in a professor's office very regularly as a child with only Garfield and the Smurfs to keep me occupied, so that has to have done some damage.Will you be in my show/revue/short/feature/birthday party/et cetera?Not ruling it out! If you're in need of an actor, shoot me an email and I'll share my _{film reel}.Sweetheart, it's your dad. Will you finally add me back on Facebook?No chance in hell, old manBack to the main page!
