| From
the time I was a young boy I was destined to be a comedian.
It started at
a family gathering when I took the stage and told my first joke: "Why did the
little mouse play the big guitar? Because he wanted to get attention".
Sure,
the joke sucked, but the technique was right on the mark. Thus began the comedy
odyssey of my life dedicated to humor and provoking laughter in others. 
I
became a fan of all kinds of comedy and was influenced by many different people.
Some of the major influences included the slapstick and social satire of the Three
Stooges,
the voices and critters in Warner
Brothers cartoons,
sketches and characters on the Carol
Burnett Show,
the ground-breaking sit-com All
In The Family,
the late night talk show master Johnny Carson, the British humor of Monty
Python,
the early Saturday
Night Live,
with a special nod the the maddeningly funny John
Belushi,
and also Bill
Murray.
I was also a fan of such notables as Eddie
Murphy,
Joan Rivers, Steve Martin, Richard Pryor, George
Carlin,
Pol Pot, Lucretia Borgia, Mussolini, and such local favorites as Bob Seibel, Chance
Langton,
Mike
Donovan,
and the list goes on. After
winning the coveted prize of class clown my senior year at Milford Area Senior
High, I was runner-up as class-partier too, I went on to the school of life experience
as a greens-keeper, factory worker, carpenter, plumber, painter, college security
officer, college student, unemployed alcoholic, pirate
and all around wise-ass.
In
the mid 90's I decided to walk the talk and began to appear at open-mike shows
in Boston.I worked hard and developed a reputation as hustler and I have been
working as a comedian ever since. I have been called many things, hack and douchebag
come to mind, but I'll only quote the flattering comments. Robin Vaughn of the
Boston
Herald said I was a "likable personality", Stacy Milbouer of the Nashua
Telegraph said that I will "leave 'em laughing" and veteran Boston comic Bob Seibel said
that I was "Funny, funny, funny".

With
my own laid back blend of current events, interesting observations, crowd-work
and all around fun approach toward life I have been appearing at clubs, colleges,
benefits, corporate shows I have been all around America and continue to appear
at any place that needs a hard-working and professional comedian. |
