Ellen’s Last Stand…Up Comedy Tour keeps on going! I’m honored to be bringing my mix of comedy, entertainment, and auctioneering to massive theaters around the U.S. as a part of Ellen’s final tour.

Having worked for Ellen for over 17 years, I was thrilled to get the call to open for her one last time. Taking the stage before Ellen, I do part comedy, part warm-up, and part auctioneering. It’s so cool to be able to show off my selling skills, which I’m now showcasing for nonprofits in Nashville and beyond.

Radio City Music Hall in New York was our largest crowd on this tour! Over 6 thousand people, a sold out show. Growing up in New Jersey, it was a pipe dream to ever be able to perform on this stage, and I was able to make it happen.

Truly, a night that I will remember forever.

Up next we are heading to Toronto, Nashville, Charlotte, Chicago, Durham, and Minneapolis!
