I just made the semi-finals @ Go Bananas Comedy Club in Cincy, OH for standup. My one-act play Hot Potato won the Fade to Black Festival and was performed live at The Match Box Theatre in Houston. I was also just awarded OUTSTANDING DRAMATIC SUPPORTING ROLE of 2022 in the Fresh Fruit Festival, for the play ROOMATES. Let me be the funny icing on your cake.
