Wow, what do you write about yourself? How do you tell everyone how great you are without sounding like a douchebag? Well, let me give it a try.....
Like most comics, I have always liked making people laugh, and from a young age, I learned I was pretty good at it. I started doing voice impressions when I was 10 or so, and have been perfecting and adding new voices ever since. I was given the nickname "The Man of 1000 Voices", although, I think its closer to 600 or something. Ah well, I think that's still pretty good!
I got my professional voice artist start in radio. I have written and voiced hundreds of radio commercials, as well as being responsible for countless hours of live radio, impersonating quite a few celebrities for radio interviews, comedy bits and, well, just to mess with people. If you are interested in contacting me for radio or voice over work, please feel free to contact me for rates and demos of my past work.
After kicking around behind a mic in a radio studio for a while, somebody suggested that I take my show to the people, so I made the transition to the stage. I started doing stand-up and quickly realized that live performing was still in my blood (you see, I sang in a band for a while...nothing fancy).
My act combines dead-on impersonations with inventve writing and a rock n' roll mentality, making it a unique and fun experience for all ages. If you'd like to book me, please contact me for availability.
So, there you go. A very brief history of the world according to me. If you would like to know more, just ask! Now you know, and knowing is half the battle!
Here is me doing some radio promotion in Seattle on The Bob Rivers Show!!!
I also fill in on the local news from time to time. Here are a few videos of me doing what I do on the Fox 13 Morning News!
