Hello! I'd love to coach your team or direct your sketches! I've been doing improv since high school and have been taking classes at UCB since 2013. I have also studied with the Groundlings. Characters are my favorite thing to do, and I'd love to help you create characters with strong, specific points of view. My biggest focus is on having FUN in your scenes! Let's get weird and silly! Let's make bold, surprising, and unexpected choices! I can also help your team slow down in scenes and simplify the tops of scenes to help you get to the game faster. I'm also down to play around with forms. If you just need a one-off sub, I'll gladly do that too!

I am currently on the UCB Harold team Bitchin'. I am one of the co-hosts and producers of the wildly popular Filipino AF variety show. I also hosted/produced the monthly Dial-Up Show in the Inner Sanctum with my indie team k3wlAZN420 for 2.5 years. I have performed in Asian AF, Crashbar presents, DCM, LAIIF, SF Sketchfest, as well as a billion other shows around town.

My schedule varies from week to week, so send me a message and we can work out a practice time!
