    Aloha friends, Holy crap Edinburgh Fringe was way busier than I thought. From shows in front of 10 people to Ira Glass coming to one and becoming friends to sell outs and my first review this week (4stars baby!) It’s been insane and if you want to follow along check out my IG where I have been posting. I’ve been getting a lot of questions lately about writing, comedy, performance, and how to actually finish the thing you’re trying to make. I wrote this show in about a month, plus a movie and blu

    I’ve been a nomad before. When I was 24 my girlfriend and I decided we could no longer work at the bookstore that was sucking our souls and making us hate literature and words.
