Raised in Kankakee IL, as a shy, reserved, introvert, Todd learned that laughter and likability were traits that transcend barriers. Through this, he discovered valuable communication skills that can be used in day-to-day living.
Using these skills, he was able to overcome social anxiety. Further developing as a leader, Todd served 6 years in the U.S. Army, graduated from Southern Illinois University, and became chapter president of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Inc. It was at SIUC that he began his comedy career.
On the path to becoming a professional comedian, Todd worked in corporate America. It was discovered that he could merge training that implemented communication and comedy, which led to his keynote entitled The Key of C: Effective Communication for Everyday Leaders. Developing a fondness for speaking and training he began to look at his journey of overcoming obstacles and the importance of mentorship. Todd has now begun a youth-based speech In Spite We Overcome: The Power of Perseverance.
Whether you are looking for a laugh out loud comedian for your club, college, or corporate event, perhaps your staff needs a "pick me up" with their next leadership training, or your youth program needs a special message, No matter the venue, Todd guarantees you will be inspired long after he leaves the stage.
