Screenwriting

I’m a comic and writer from Michigan. And after graduating from Boston College, I moved to L.A., partly to pursue a creative path, and partly because my old apartment did not have a dishwasher.​ I never got that dishwasher, but I did manage to catch a few early breaks in screenwriting.

 

The first was co-writing a movie for Mike Karz and Josie Rosen during their overall deal at Warner Brothers; the project was purchased by Michael Eisner's company and later ran on SHOWTIME. That led to a few more things, like developing a pilot for SNL's Punkie Johnson, a game show for TBS Digital, and a pilot for global headliner Morgan Jay. 

​​

On a parallel track, I’ve been doing a lot of standup. You might've seen me opening for Harland Williams, Tom Clark, and Morgan Jay -- or hosting for Anthony Jeselnik, Theo Von, and Nikki Glaser. I've performed at clubs, casinos, and corporates. Recorded one of the first standup specials in VR. And one time, I bombed at a "silent rave." (That's my bad on that.)​

 

I most recently co-wrote a script for National Lampoon during their overall deal at Paramount. Wrote a book that debuted at #1 in its category on Amazon. And I feature on the road. Currently, I live in Los Angeles, have a dog named Cookie, and only own one belt.
