For over a decade, I ran NYC’s largest improv school, the Upright Citizens Brigade Training Center. From 2001-2020, I was a writer/performer at the UCB Theatre; starting in 2012, I improvised every Saturday night to sold out audiences with The Curfew.

In the corporate world, Ive been lead developer at a web programming company, research publisher at a major financial firm, and held administrative positions in advertising sales and conference planning.
