For this #Throwback, I thought I'd take us to my time living in Chicago.

I studied improv comedy at Annoyance Theatre.  This is my ol' pal Jen.  We were in the Lil' Talent Show together.  I'll never forget my first laugh on that stage...

I was pretty new into town and ravenous for learning.  The Annoyance helped me reframe my mind and get focused.  It also helped me be better prepared when I auditioned for The Second City.  That’s another chapter…

When I arrived to Chicago, I thought I was the best thing to ever happen to comedy.  Of course, I was humbled.  I'll tell that story another day.  The Annoyance gave me the tools I needed for my next chapter and I'm forever grateful for that time in my life.  

For now, here's a couple of fun images I edited in #Picnik back in the day when had to blur out all our features BY HAND!  Did you know that website sold for $50 million?  Google bought them.  Crazy!
