Stand Up Comedian

Over the last 10 years, I’ve performed sell out shows right around the world, including London, Edinburgh, Melbourne, Stockholm, Adelaide and Sydney. In Melbourne I won the Search for a Funny Bone competition in a pool including some of the world’s biggest comedians (think people in big Hollywood movies today). In the UK, I was a finalist in the Bath Festival Comedy Competition. My 2022 Edinburgh run was over capacity, with people turned away from every performance. That show was also selected for The Pleasance Theatre ‘Best of Fringe’ season in London.

I love comedy that starts small to make big points and flips back and forth between the profane and the profound. If you’d like to book me for a gig please fill out the form on the home page.

Punch up and directing

I’ve been lucky enough to work with some pretty impressive directors when working on my solo work. The structure and storytelling of my shows has been something that audiences and reviewers have frequently highlighted. I’m currently available to work on punch up and directing for one show in 2023. Get in touch with me on my home page to talk more.
