Drawing from skills he developed in and around writing workshops at Western Michigan University, Ken jumped into Chicago's formidable stand up scene in December 2007 and has been desperately trying to make a career at it ever since.
His energy grabs the audience from the get-go, and keeps their attention with anecdotes, one-liners and witty observations about falling asleep on the bus.
Ken is an experienced MC and feature in stand up, having performed at Zanies and the Laugh Factory in Chicago, Morty's in Indianapolis, and the House of Blues in New Orleans, and other venues throughout the Mid West.
He's opened for Nick Thune, Eric Andre and Hannibal Buress, while producing numerous showcases and open mics with those beautiful bastards in the Windy City. He's opened for Jon Dore at Comedy on State in Madison, and performed at the Motor City Comedy Festival, as well as the the New Orleans Comedy and Arts Festival with Josh Johnson and Neil Hamburger.
Now that the industry has opened up following the 2020 COVID epidemic, Ken can be found working regularly at the Ann Arbor Comedy Showcase, Mark Ridley’s Comedy Castle (Royal Oak, MI), The Independent Comedy Club (Ant Hall, Hamtramck, MI), as well as the Funny Business Agency and various mics and showcases around Metro Detroit.
