A very strong MC who can connect with any audience and can adapt to any situation, enjoying a growing reputation which has seen him booked not only in countries such as The Czech Republic, Croatia, Slovenia, Malta and Romania but also the UKs top clubs.
He has written for 8 Out of 10 Cats and Walk on the Wild Side and his debut one man show had 2 sell out nights at the 2010 Manchester Comedy Festival.
 
"Tales of student and family life. A funny guy. Holding his own on stage he bridges the gaps between the generations."
Mirth on Monday 
"Naturally and effortlessly funny."
