About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To spread some nubb love across the world
ABOUT ME
I am a 27 year old from Indiana. I was born with a disability in my arms that I have tried my best not to let define me. I am a professional standup comedian, having started in Los Angeles before moving back home to Indiana. I tour various clubs and colleges across the country. I am also a trained stage actor having worked professional summer stock theaters. My biggest passions are professional wrestling (it's not fake, it's scripted!), sports (go Cubs and Dolphins!), and geocaching. I am looking to travel and get a better understanding of the world while I try to figure out exactly who I want to be when I grow up.
PHILOSOPHY
We all have our disabilities.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
In my time as a standup comedian, I have already done more and accomplished greater things than I could have ever imagined. I have performed with Robin Williams, Carlos Mencia, Christopher Titus, and Norm MacDonald. I have recorded my own CD. I have fans. I have filmed tv pilots. I never thought any of that would have been possible.
Teach, Learn, Share
Living with a physical disability in a world that's not designed for people with physical disabilities, I have learned ways to adapt and have gotten an insight on how people work. Part of my life mission is to educate "normies" into what the real struggles of the handicapped are, and how it really is to walk a mile in our shoes (or roll, depending on what the disability is).
From a far less deep and less practical place, I also have a vast and slightly scary knowledge of professional wrestling and standup comedy. So if you need anything there, you just let me know.
