I'm a New York City-based comedian, writer, actor and singer. I perform regularly in New York City and have performed at clubs and colleges across the United States and around the world. A favorite of both gay and straight audiences, I was named one of "7 Funny LGBT Comics You Shouldn't Have Missed" by The Advocate. I've performed my one-man show, “Take My Job, Please! Confessions of a Stand-up Doorman” (a.k.a. “Doorman Confidential”) at Dixon Place and The Pit Loft in New York City. I'm also the author of a book called New York Trilogy.
