Comedy & Speaking

You can find me making funny happen with The Totally Improvised Company.

I've hosted event brands like TEDx, PechaKucha and Comedy Club 4 Kids. I also deliver talks on the benefits of  improvisation in work and life.

Improvisation can change your life.

I'm a big exponent of improv as a skill for life. At work or just for fun, the building blocks of 'Yes And' have helped me grow myself and my business. In this talk, I explain how improv is a fun way to build the brain muscles we need to have better positive and productive conversations.
