He wants to do this because he thinks “it would be pretty fun to not have a real job.” He also, “really enjoys making people laugh,” and looking, “on the lighter side of things.” His favorite comedian is Louis C.K. Who inspired him to try standup through his show “Louie.”

He is currently working on a project to rent out a music venue and throw a party while playing music all of them have worked on.
