About Me

Originally from Mt. Vernon, Illinois, I live and work in Los Angeles as an actor, comedian and writer. I am currently a cast member on FOX's MAD TV and Hope from Hope is Emo. Visit Hope at hopeisemo.com, or subscribe to Hope episodes through itunes! My favorite color is blue and I wear adult braces. My sister and I don't look alike, but we still hang out and stuff. I used to not like beer, but I do now.
