As Popeye would say: "I yam what I yam." What I am is a writer, comedian, actor, and smart-ass.
Well...I suppose I'd better give you the details. After all, I'd be a turkey not to participate in this month's Introduce Yourself Weekend. But, to keep it brief, I'll be stuffing it in to a relatively short post, while listening to "Zombie" by The Cranberries.
My very first screenplay, ROMANTIC COMEDY 101, was produced and aired on E! Entertainment Television. I've also been in plays, movies, web series, short films, and done tons of improv comedy.
I'm also a founding member of the improvisational sketch comedy group, THOSE FOUR MISFITS (www.ThoseFourMisfits.com). One of our regular sketches, involves the use of a Soakzooka, where one pump c'n pile a huge amount of water onto an unfortunately cast member.
Currently, I'm working on outlining a partially-improvised comedy pilot, SKETCHY SKETCHY, as well as working on the pitch and series bible of a sci-fi comedy series, GOING COMMANDER (teaser video below -- sound on!). Ideally, it would be on a streaming service, and it would be gravy if I and the rest of Those Four Misfits could star in it, too!
I'm always on the lookout to collaborate with cool, creative people.
Thanks for reading!

P.S.: See if you can figure out the theme to this month's post. It's an easy one, but to add a bit of a challenge, I'm not putting the clues in all caps this time around. Clue count: 6

Niki H The one you missed was the most hidden. Look at where I mentioned the Soakzooka. "Pump c'n pile". Hope your weekend was a good one, too.
