I am a first generation American just trying to figure life out in a millennial’s world. I plopped out of my Haitian mother in January of ’92 and was raised in Sacramento, CA. Growing up in the 916 taught me how to bargain, blend in with the white people, and dodge crazy drivers. I wanted to expand my horizons in college so I ventured to the great lands of Reno, Nevada, an even whiter community! Easy, I had prepared for this my entire life! After earning my degree in health (basically from learning how to procrastinate and get papers done after a bottle of wine), I soon got into car sales. Why? for the same reason everyone does, because I realized that being popular at keg parties doesn’t pay the bills in the real world and it was good money that didn’t check your grades. Oops. I soon remembered that my goals in life are to make people laugh and ultimately LIVE. So I quit my job and here I am! I find the best way to express my struggles through awkward thoughts, awkward actions, bad decisions, and binge drinking is best done on stage in front of a ton of strangers. It’s way cheaper than therapy!
