On stage, the delivery feels like someone telling you a chaotic story in the alley behind a bar after a late shift. He leans forward, paces, and talks in short bursts, using voice shifts when impersonating restaurant regulars or former enablers. When a punchline lands, he does not sit in the laugh. He moves right into the next setup, treating the set like a sprint.

On stage
He operates mostly in the club grind, pulling material out of the gap between where he thought his life was going and where it landed. His hour Chasin’ Dreams focuses on the indignities of waiting tables at high-end spots and trying to keep a level head after quitting alcohol. The jokes land best when he leans into the sheer absurdity of being a grown man taking orders from demanding customers. He can occasionally slip into over-explaining a setup when he senses an audience hesitating, but his pace usually saves the beat.
