About Me
I’ve been performing stand-up since the late ’90s, bringing my storytelling-based, relatable comedy to audiences across the U.S. and abroad. I’ve had the honor of performing for American troops in Iraq and Afghanistan and for countless corporate and fundraising events. Based near Iowa City, I find humor in the absurdity of everyday life—clever, grounded, and always right for the room.

FAQs
What kind of audiences have you performed for?
Every size, shape, and flavor, from sanitation workers and high schoolers to accountants and sawmill workers. Blue collar, white collar, you name it—I’ve done it.
What's your typical show length?
I’ll advise you on the best show length based on the event and your audience. Performances are 30-60 minutes.
How far will you travel?
Professional comedians travel for a living, and being a road warrior is part of my job description. I’m available to travel throughout the U.S. for your event.
Will you be calling out people in the audience?
Only if you ask me to. I can add humor specific to your group—maybe your CEO is always sharing asinine TikToks and has a good sense of humor. Good-natured humor that only your group “gets”? Comedy gold.
“Nathan performed at a fundraiser for our organization, created after the passing of our little girl. Nathan was sensitive to the reason for the event and tailored his act to our audience; he’s a clever storyteller.”
I’ll respond personally within 24 hours. No spam, no sales pressure—just a quick chat about your event.
“We were delighted with Nathan’s performance. He had no problem putting a smile on everyone’s face. We would definitely invite him back.”
“Nathan had a way of talking to the crowd as if he knew us personally and had people roaring with laughter. We had great comments from our team members.”
“In 30 years, this is the first time I’ve seen anyone transform a group of postal employees into laughing party people! I received countless compliments, including from an Association Board Officer.”
