About Me

I’am a young up and coming comedian orginally from Baltimore, MD. I started stand-up at the tender age of 16, and I’ve been going strong ever since. I love what I do, and the people that surround me. So I look forward to networking, and meeting other performers who aspire to do great things.

December 2005
I just wrapped new Indie film entitled "Mirage" alongside actor Ben Youcef from the major motion picture "Munich"

March 2006
Just wrapped new film "Art of Abundance" Directed by Cheryl Costa

Just finished featuring for Josh Blue the winner of NBC’s Last Comic Standing! Sept 06
