The Comedian Who Unstitched Trauma With Laughter
I’ll make you laugh until it hurts. Then I’ll keep going.
I was born in Tasmania, which, if you didn’t know, is a place that exists and people sometimes live there. I do stand-up, or I did, which means I stood alone on a stage and tried to make strangers understand something without ever really asking for their sympathy. I use comedy like a scalpel—precision matters, and blood is expected. I’ve said what needed saying. Now I ask who’s been listening.
What I'm Into: Tasmanian rain, the silence after a punchline, comedy that doesn't look away, stitching wounds with threadbare jokes
