Happy World Circus Day!
I'm so grateful for the art form that has given me community, inspiration, and opportunities I never could have dreamed of otherwise.
Circus - and clowning - changed my life, and I'm so honored to get to share what I love.
To all the artists, colleagues, directors, teachers, students, and audiences so far (& to those I've yet to meet) : thank you!!!

What an amazing journey it's been so far with @Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey: The Greatest Show on Earth!
🌟🎪🌟

The oldest and most famous circus in American history has been going since 1884. A LOT has changed in that time, and the circus changes with it. This 148th edition of the show is different, with a contemporary soundtrack and style, while still highlighting classically amazing human skills.

Through my comedy on this show, my goal is to bring as much laughter and joy as possible, and to make sure the show stays vibrantly reactive in the present moment. I have the unique freedom to adapt jokes and moments to each city & audience, and try to playfully connect with the thousands of beautiful families attending each show. Their willingness to play along inspires me to no end.

It's an honor beyond compare to be able to do what I love on this kind of scale, and I'm grateful every day to my collaborators, castmates, crew, and fellow clowns. This is an INCREDIBLE team, and I couldn't be happier!

Check out my latest project!
🕺🏻🪄💚🏖🐸
Since Sept of last year, I've been on Guam playing a lead role in @kareraguam
I play A'ate (the trickster) alongside some truly talented dancers, aerialists, fire artists, & musicians.

Each night I get to: journey through island culture, improvise with the audience, goof around with young and old, do a featured comedy magic act, and show off my "dance" moves. It's an absolute delight, and if you make it to Guam, you've got to see this show!
