Live Every Day Like It Was Your Last and enjoy it with family and friends.

"I grew up in Lansingburgh and I have lived in Troy for most of my life.Im a pretty Simple Kind of man actually.I work 6 days a week and I work very hard.

I love what I do for a living and I also make great money doing it so that helps!

On nights and weekends, I also Perform Stand-up Comedy at clubs,events etc...I also Love to Cook and stay fit by Running,Boxing and working out.

I also like to enjoy a good b.b.q with friends and family.I also try to help people out as much as i can and enjoy life.

My first open-mic was then at The Comedy Works. I remember going up 3rd. The emcee was a big guy from NYC. he asked me if I have ever done this before? I told him that this was my very first open-mic.

He looked at me and rolled his eyes and said GREAT really sarcastically.

I remember it was the dead of winter and the club was fully packed with people.I was nervous but I wasn't . Does that make sense?I remember being called up onto stage and it was like a dream.Everything that I said , Every joke. KILLED.

That is a comedy term for Your kicking ass. Everyone laughed at every single thing that I said. It was a true comics dream. After I closed my set , The comic from NYC that had an attitude towards me 7 minutes ago gave me a warm handshake and talked about me like I was a million dollars to the crowd.

Comedy is like a drug to me and that was my first high. There is nothing like it and I simply cannot explain it. I love to make people laugh.

If I make it big someday .... That would be cool , If not that is ok to.The world needs more Laughter and people really need to lighten up these days.
