The thing he misses most from the states is Mexican food. He enjoys disc golf, snowboarding and other hobbies which will definitely never earn him money or make his family proud. He started standup just before the pandemic while living in Czech Republic because he loves a challenge is great at bad timing. He picked it back up in 2022 after moving to Switzerland because he doesn't learn from his mistakes. His humor is a mix of social and family commentary tinged with the insights of an expat living, loving and learning in different language and cultural environments for most of his adult life.
