Twenty three years later, he is still doing his thing and along the way has worked such famous venues as The Tropicana Hotel in Las Vegas, The Improv in Dallas, Caroline’s on Broadway, Dangerfields in NYC, Mohegan Sun Casino, The Comedy Store in LA, Zany’s in Chicago, Catch a Rising Star in Reno, NV and the Treehouse Comedy Clubs of Connecticut—while sharing the stage with such acts as Brian Regan, Jim Gaffigan, Dom Irrera, and Denis Leary name a few places and people.
He returns to The Kate and looks forward to discussing the subjects that are close to him such as his family, marriage, being raised Irish Catholic, current events and the local Connecticut shoreline.
