Complete a pilot comedic series about a gay couple moving to Vermont and opening a food business
I have been performing improv and stand up comedy for 17 years. I have also been a chef for 20 years. I have merge both joys in my life and came up with this original series which celebrates diversity and Vermont. I have been writing original work for 20 years and I also write a weekly column in The Vermont Standard.
