CURRENT MISSION

Enjoying the life I've chosen.

ABOUT ME

People often tell me, "Caleb, there is no one else like you" which is true. Those that think it's a good thing enjoy the fact that I shake up their point of view and bring insight into their lives. It can either be scary or fantastic but I lead a life of zen, following where the moment goes, making plans and laughing when they're ruined, picking up the pieces and trying something new. I'm a good friend and I'm looking for good people to spend some time with.

PHILOSOPHY

I enjoy the fact that life IS, the more I discover the more fascinating it becomes. I have faith that when we follow what we truly feel is necessary then we find success and happiness.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Life never ceases to amaze me, although it's an ordinary story that occurs everyday. When I was in college I realized that the schooling I was getting was a waste of time and that I needed to move where I could learn what I needed to learn. So at 19, I dropped out of school and left the town I'd grown up in to move to Chicago and study comedy. That was 8 years ago, it worked. I survived.

The story continues when I decided that I needed to go out to the west coast in order to keep working. I couchsurf'd and rideshare'd across the country finally landing in SF where I made two films and produced a comic book in 2012. Those the believe in themselves and keep pushing for what's important to them, achieve it. I am living proof.

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach comedy with the sense of zen in order to understand the world as it changes around us. I help people live their lives more successfully. This is not about making them change, it is about living my life to the fullest and being an inspiration to those around me.
