About Me

I have had comedy on the brain ever since July 2001. A good friend of mine, Dave Padilla, was doing comedy when I was visiting home from the Air Force He persuaded me to give it a shot. I wrote a couple of jokes and did my first performance ever on my birthday at a bar in Milford, Connecticut. It just so happened that they were having a comedy contest that nite and I placed 2nd...not too shabby for a first outing.
