Sketch/Characters:
Want to bounce ideas and start shaping something? Yeah. Have something more polished you want someone to check out? Yep. Struggling with something you've been working on? Oh man. Yes. My favourite. We'll get to the funny and blow it up together at a good, quick, and fun pace without the stress. Wigs and mustaches optional but encouraged.

Improv:
I'm a fan of you having fun with each other and playing clear scenes, so that's what we'll focus on for the most part. I'll push you to go where you're going naturally and double downing on your choices. We'll work together on finding where your funny meets your teammates' funny. I personally play from the gut and the heart, so I'll be coaching you all along those lines as well. I like truthful reactions, commitment to funny voices, and moving your body.
