Started performing Stand-up Comedy in April 2006 - loving every minute of it.
Finished my Honours in 2006 in Performing Arts, where I received First Class Honours for my awesome thesis on Stand-up Comedy. A surprising number of comedians aren’t actually interested in this. I’m not bitter - fuck you!
Contrary to the Star Sign allocated to me by Myspace - I am actually a Scorpio. It’s a hard life being on the cusp, but I made the decision years ago that I am all Scorpio.

Movies
Sin City - it's visually stunning. Silence of the Lambs & Misery - takes me back to my childhood. The Last Unicorn - lovely!! Anything that'll make me laugh (this allows for quite a wide scope - I like silly, witty, intellient and stupid humour).

Buffy the Vampire Slayer. We Can Be Heroes. Nighty Night. Fast Forward (and Full Frontal to some extent). Carnivale. Deadwood. Degrassi Junior High. I'm sure there are others.
Books
Redwall by Brian Jacques. The Hobbit. Wicked. The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Grug Goes To The Beach.

I've been intentionally making audiences laugh on a regular basis since April 2006. A short career to date - but just you wait! I should have started this comedy bizzo sooner but I was busy thinking about and working on being an actOORR. It wasn't until I decided to do my Honours Thesis on Stand-up Comedy that I entered the world of stand-up (unless you count that time at Grade 6 camp when I refused to do a skit with any of the other kids). I haven't forgotten about acting though. In fact, I recently had a role in a great film, which has just commenced post-production and is getting close to finishing - "From Parts Unknown". Check out the links in My Friends for more details. I am currently in London for travel and comedy and acting work (better get off my butt and find some). Below is a sketch I appear in with some great Melbourne comedians, Troy Kinne (the star), Monty Franklin and Oliver Clarke.
Who I'd like to meet: Hugh Jackman, Chris Lilley (I already did meet him, but I think I would like to have another go at it - and maybe get it right this time) - and I mean in person not on myspace. Simon Pegg. Julia Davis.
