FREE RANGE HUMAN
I use comedy to help people & organizations break the walls of convention.
I AM CAGE FREE
I followed the path that society laid out for me, lied to myself and convinced my heart that it was actually what I wanted. After 6 years of grad school, the suits, the interviews, the seriousness, the loans, I woke up in my first year of the dream job and I was UNHAPPY.
I am a comedian, pharmacist, author, and speaker out to help create a more adaptable, empathetic, and humanizing healthcare experience.
Rewind to 2013, two years into my pharmacy career and there I was, struggling to adapt to the unscripted world of pharmacy and healthcare.
On paper I had checked all of the boxes: perfect grades, residency, board certification. But then I realized something was missing - the ability to create meaningful connections in the moment with those I cared for, and the ability to adapt and remain flexible.
2013 was the year I went to my first improv class and two simple words changed everything for me: "Yes, and."

I GUESS I'M A DAD NOW
A Humorous Handbook for Newish Dads Who Don't Want to Suck
There are no rules or explanations to this dad game, and yet it seems like society will literally collapse if you get this wrong.
Of course, I’m the most amazing pharmacist comedian you’ve ever met, but I'm JUST LIKE YOU.
Just a real dad trying to figure it all out.
