I was born…
a boy.
My favorite thing about Arizona…
the diverse climates within a short drive.
I’m listening to…
Michael Buble.
My family…
is like the Army, a family of one…and my dog, Huma.
If I could have dinner with anyone, it would be…
Shannon Stafford, it’s hard to nail her down to a date!
One thing I cannot live without…
I don’t have anything like that. I could live without anything outside of water and air. However, I like Ben & Jerry’s Cherry Garcia a lot! But it’s still 3rd to water and air.
When I was younger, I wanted to be…
I really didn’t have any dreams of being anything. When I was a Senior at Thunderbird High School, a computer program told the counselor I should be rodeo clown; I guess I came close.
I’m inspired by…
feel good stories of people overcoming the odds.
The one person who motivates me is…
My drill instructors in Marine Corps Boot Camp and Bill Bur.
If I could change anything in the world, it would be…
my high cholesterol.
The perfect day would be…
I don’t chase perfect days. I’m pretty happy with whatever goes down in the current one.
My first job was…
working with my dad paving lots. I think it was really baby sitting and they just didn’t want to hire a sitter, but he figured if was there, I might as well have a shovel in my hand.
My favorite escape…
I need one. I just bought a dirt bike; it’ll probably be that once I can get out on it.
My life…
is taking shape; I was a late bloomer.
I’m currently working on…
making SUS Comedy Club the best comedy club it can be.
Always…
check a gift horse’s mouth just to make sure you got everything intended.
Never…
pay for jokes you could come up with yourself.
Favorite Quote…
“Though it make the unskillful laugh, cannot but make the judicious grieve.”-William Shakespeare
Biggest Dream…
to have a family.
My Pet Peeve(s)…
are bad drivers & hack comedians.
