bio-not-so-logical

i share a name with a famous astrophysicist, but dropped out of a physics class in undergrad. in hindsight, the irony seems fitting, considering i eventually went on to embody the ironies of life in general as an aspiring comedian in new york.
​
following explorations in comedy, acting, music, the world of small business and the service industry, i got a master's degree from VCU Brandcenter. now i work as a jr. copywriter at David&Goliath in LA.

when i'm not "having fun with giving away fried chicken sandwiches" at "work", you can find me teaching myself to surf on an 8-ft. soft-top board at Venice Beach, or jamming on synthesizers in my studio apartment nearby.
