Comedy

I’ve been making audiences laugh for decades. As a speechwriter, I’ve woven punchlines into speeches by the likes of Jack Layton and Alexa McDonough, along with premiers, cabinet ministers and leaders across the country. My cartoons, comic monologues and essays have appeared in outlets including the CBC’s DNTO and Royal Canadian Air Farce, the Christian Science Monitor, StarTrek.com? and ReadWriteWeb, where I was the weekly cartoonist. I’m a veteran keynote speaker, communications trainer and speaking coach.

I’ve has been performing standup since the mid-2000s (with a hiatus while I performed in a multi-year exclusive engagement for my toughest audience to date: my kids) with a focus on social commentary, Internet culture and this utterly bonkers moment in history.
