About Me

er...I am an improv and sketch comedy performer that writes screenplays, and is making a go at being a horror film maker/writer. The world inside my head is like Dr. Suess' "If I Ran The Zoo" as directed by Terry Gilliam. I am working as well on a musical project called "Shipwreck on Monster Island" and a .. pilot for my (and Matt Reid's) sketch duo REID ALONG WITH BROWNING called "The Adventures of Infamous Potto & Aye."CHECK OUT: WWW.REIDALONGWITHBROWNING.COM
