BIO

With a comedic origin story rooted in a decade of short-form and long-form improvisation in Chicago and New York at places like Second City, iO, the Annoyance, the Magnet, the PIT, and ComedySportz, Andrew’s stand-up style has evolved into a sharp, observational exploration of the absurdity of modern technology and daily life. Whether dissecting his dependency on algorithms or the friction of doing anything in the modern age, his material finds the human truth in our most frustrating digital habits.

Based in Los Angeles, Andrew is a regular performer across SoCal, including frequent appearances at the historic Ice House in Pasadena. He has performed across the United States at notable festivals in Chicago, Dallas, Greenville, etc., and he regularly competes in the nationwide World Series of Comedy. Deeply committed to the mechanics of the craft, he completed a daily joke-writing challenge in 2024, writing and publishing 150 original two-liner jokes over 30 consecutive days on YouTube.

His current solo hour, American Apology Tour, officially debuted at the Glasgow International Comedy Festival and is headed across the Atlantic for a nightly run at the 2026 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, performing at Just the Tonic’s iconic Caves venue.
