About Me

I am a comedian. Here's a recent profile on ME that appeared in actual ink.

My Interests

Most things nerdy, but not Star Trek (yet).

I'd like to meet:

Misfits, smart ones. And Mary-Louise Parker.

Music:

Montreal!: The Jimmyriggers, Alexandra and the Herrings, Najah Zoude, Lesbians on Ecstasy, Amanda Mabro and the Cabaret Band.

Movies:

The ones that play in my head at night.

Television:

fuzzy french game shows.

Books:

Geek Love, Feast of Love, Infinite Jest. Love, love, jest.

Heroes:

Heroines! I'm inspired by: Tori Amos, Ani Difranco, Paula Poundstone (despite the whole AA thing), Ellen Degeneres, Laurie Kilmartin and my mom (despite the whole AA thing).
