About Me 

COMEDY HEADSHOT WEB.jpg

I'm a Los Angeles-based actor, improviser, and musician (rapper/vocalist/producer) managed by Established Artists. I have appeared in feature films, national commercials, and in improv shows across the world. 

Upcoming Projects

Most recently I starred in a pilot for an adult puppet show as the leading man (and only human), alongside a cast that includes puppeteers from The Muppets and Sesame Street. You can catch me as the lead in Saulius Baradinskas’s beautiful and heartfelt short film Paper Boy, which will begin it’s festival run in 2026, or as a series regular and namesake role of Graham Noble in the brilliant new comedy pilot, Noble Homes, which is currently being shopped for pick up.  Other notable credits include the Sundance Film Festival feature film Dinner in America, Loot on Apple TV, alongside Maya Rudolph, and the feature film Camp Manna, alongside Jimmy Tatro and Gary Busey.

As a UCB Mainstage performer, you can catch me improvising musicals as a member of Baby Wants Candy and Shamilton: The Improvised Hip-Hop Musical. I recently returned from our world tour with the shows, including a sold-out run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. I am also a staff writer and music producer for famed rap comedy group Epic Rap Battles of History, who's videos have amassed over 4 billions views on YouTube. As a rapper and producer (under the name Demko), my songs have gained millions of listens across streaming platforms.
