I tend to be a bit of a workaholic, but I also can't function without some sort of domesticity as well.

There was a while when I got really bad stage fright and I basically felt...I was incredibly angry. I felt like everything had been taken away from me and it was at that point that I realized how much doing stand up reminds me of my self love and curiosity about myself and love of other people because I don't go on stage to dominate.

I just want to be able to do something that's interesting to me.

Don't be snarky, but don't be saccharine. Don't pander, but don't shut people out. Go straight down the line with the performance.

I think the main thing that affected my comedy was that my dad slept in a nightgown for most of my childhood. And it was just very funny every single night and made me realize that laughter is fun and nightgowns are cool.

There are so many different stories. You can choose to tell them, or not, but they certainly have the right to exist

I am a comedian and I started in stand-up when I was 22.
