I am currently a member of Five Man Job, Brave New Workshop, Foterson, Show X, Dogwalk, 123 Improv, Creature Feature.  I've been to the Chicago Improv Festival (2x), Atlanta Improv Festival, Los Angeles Improv Festival, and Twin Cities Improv Festival (4x). I also help produce Improv A Go Go and TCIF.

I am currently a member of the Mustache Rangers. In addition to performing at pretty much any space imaginable in the Twin Cities, the Mustache Rangers have also performed in the Twin Cities Improv Festival, Chicago Improv Festival and Philadelphia's Duofest.

In high school, I watched a lot of the original UK Who’s Line Is It Anyway? in reruns, and thought it seemed like improv would be fun to do. When I got to Grinnell College in Iowa, I saw signs announcing tryouts for the Ritalin Test Squad, the campus improv group.  I tried out, loved it, and played in the RTS for four years.

In May, 2001, I moved to Minneapolis and started playing with both Fingergun and Ferrari McSpeedy, two groups that are still going strong in the Twin Cities improv scene.  I've been a main stage company member of the Brave New Workshop since 2005 and the co-director of the Brave New Workshop Student Union since 2010.

I studied improv at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater in NYC and The Brave New Institute and theater at Queens College CUNY. I was on several Six Ring Circus teams, and I have performed at Improv A Go Go, Sample Night Live, The Beat Coffee House, and on the BNW stage as an understudy.

I started improvising because a teacher recommend I take Second City's classes. I have studied at the Second City's conservatory, iO Chicago, and the Brave New Institute. I have performed with the iO Harold team - GaDoosh!, performed with Mission Improvable!, and performed on Brave New Workshop mainstage since 2006.

I did my training at the BNW and since 2003 have performed in billions of after show improv sets. I've also gained invaluable experience working with Ferrari McSpeedy and Fingergun, two local improv groups.  In fall of 2009, I became the Co-Director of the Brave New Institute.

I am currently in the BNW mainstage cast. I also perform and was co-founder of Beatbox Minneapolis. I perform every October in Creature Feature produced by HUGE. Other groups I'm involved with are Sugar Sunday, The Poopanauts, Penalty Box, and Sabado Gigante!
