Originally from Atlanta, Georgia, I moved to Los Angeles in December of 2005. Growing up, I was always obsessed with comedy and was always, as the expression goes, the "class clown." (If any of my teachers from any year of schooling found this site, they would not at all be surprised that this is what I decided to do.) I always harbored a secret dream of becoming a stand-up comic, but it wasn't until I moved to L.A. and was inspired by all of the constantly amazing comedy I saw as a fan that I decided to finally try it myself.
I've also published my own photocopied zine since the age of 14, and have kept a blog since 1997. I was recently published in "Rubbish! Reuse Your Refuse" and regularly contribute pop-culture pieces like these ones here to MTV.
Oh, and because nerds like me enjoy reading this sort of stuff on other people's sites, here are some of my influences: BOB ODENKIRK, Chip Pope, Millie De Chirico, Billy Bragg, Paul F. Tompkins, Steve Martin, Vic Reeves & Bob Mortimer, Bill Hicks, David Cross, John K., Tom & Jerry, Morrissey (he's hilarious if you pay attention), Kids in the Hall, French & Saunders, pre-1990 Eddie Murphy, late '80s-early '90s "Saturday Night Live," Clarissa from "Clarissa Explains it All," Ricky Gervais, Christopher Guest, Janeane Garofalo, "The State," those MTV promos from the early '90s with Donal Logue as a gross cab driver, both "Wayne's World" movies, Professor Harold Hill from the 1962 film "The Music Man" (for confidence), Bugs Bunny, John Waters, Sassy magazine, Zack Morris, and tons more.
