About me

I've been a stand-up for over ten years, and the majority of my circuit work is as an MC, for clubs like Top Secret Comedy Club, Komedia, Just The Tonic, Comedy Lounge and more. I also work as a corporate MC and event host, working for brands like Snapchat, National Geographic, and Techstars.

I am a reluctant comedy teacher (I sincerely believe many courses on the market are scams), but I get a huge amount of satisfaction from leading these workshops because after keeping in touch with the people who have been on the course, I have seen first-hand how taking time to think about what the best version of you as an MC can be transformational.
