"ONE OF THE FUNNIEST SPOKEN-WORD ARTISTS IN CANADA"
-- TorontoPoets.com

I'm a satirist, fiction writer, and spoken-word performer based in Toronto. My stage act often uses elements of performance poetry, comedy, theatre and storytelling.

I've featured in dozens of local literary series and toured twice with the Perpetual Motion Roadshow, which brought me to such cities as New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle, Montreal and Vancouver. I have also headlined for shows throughout southern Ontario and the midwest U.S., and I've toured England twice.

I've also written arts reviews, interviews and articles as well as (gasp!) relationship self-help. I am the current Managing Editor of DivorceMagazine.com and have appeared in The Detroit News, Canoe.ca, NOW, Vu, Exclaim!, The Village Post, OWL, The Richmond Hill Post, Glued, Jagged, Wordsmith, The Independent Weekly and The Varsity.

I have authored three chapbooks of fiction and satirical monologues, Cruelty and Kindness (2002), Karaoke Dogs (2003) and Guilt Pasta (2007), published through Burning Effigy Press. In June 2005, I released my first CD, Cracktastic!, through Moody Loner Records.
