Brad Rickert

A young, personable, seasoned stand up comedian. I have experience with private events ranging from corporate training seminars to birthday parties to speaking at high schools to funeral after parties (it was the man's dying wish to have bands and comics perform after his funeral). You can expect me to show up on time, be easy to work with, and be comfortable mingling with guests and friends of the event. I also work in event planning so I know what goes into making a party or event work. I try to be as easy to work with as possible.
