Overview
About Me
NYC-based comedian/improvisor. I co-produce theatrical, comedy and networking events.
We have a Chihuahua puppy at home so not accepting guests at this time.
Intentionally 420-friendly and frequent meditator.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I've traveled throughout North America to perform at several fringe festivals. My most recent big trip (summer 2024) was to the Regina Fringe Festival in Saskatchewan, Canada.
Next up might be Prague and Adelaide, Australia (fingers crossed)!
I've also road tripped across the United States several times (by myself even). Traveling alone I relied on hostels, camping or friends of friends. I'm looking forward to the new adventures available through couchsurfing.

Music, Movies, and Books
Prince, The Smiths, Sia, Sade.
Just watched a great documentary on Joe Strummer that I can't get out of my head.
I love documentaries. Two all-time favorites are Jodorowsky's Dune (which I recommend to any artist and creator) also American Movie.
My girlfriend and I just had a mini-Kurosawa viewing party of three of his samurai films I had never seen.
We also enjoy seeing live theater, sometimes going in unaware of what the show is even about.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I road-tripped across USA on my own and wrote a book.
Teach, Learn, Share
I've taught comedy writing, public speaking, improvisation and even some documentary production too.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I'm a calm, even-keeled Pisces. When traveling, I normally have a show to do / class to teach or I'm seeing the city.
One of my favorite activities is sitting alone at a coffee shop and enjoy the moment.
Countries I’ve Visited
Canada, England, France, Honduras, Iceland, Mexico
