I was a writer and executive producer on Mulchtown, a short that aired on Adult Swim.
I was a writer and executive producer with my writing group on a few infomercial parodies for Adult Swim. For-Profit Online University, Smart Pipe, Book of Christ. I was (basically) head writer on Book of Christ. Vulture named For-Profit Online University one of the 207 Best Comedy Moments of the 2010s.
I was at the Onion from 2007 - 2012, starting as an intern and a freelance contributor, and becoming a staff writer by 2010.
I was a writer for Onion Digital Studios, which made web series for the Onion’s Youtube page. While I was there, I helped create and write shows like Sex House, Lake Dredge Appraisal, Onion Talks, and Porkin’ Across America.

I was a staff writer for Onion SportsDome, which ran for one season on Comedy Central. I also helped develop the show and write the pilot. Very little of this show can be found on the internet.

I wrote for the fourth and fifth seasons of Billy on the Street. Lots of one-liners and stuff so it’s hard to link to those. I pitched the CGI Squirrel Lightning Round. Someone else pitched the game Rizzoli Or Isles, and I wrote the clues.
I wrote a few sketches for the kids’ animated sketch show Right Now Kapow! on Disney XD. Here’s one: Bear Ghost.
I’ve written some prose and short fiction. Here are a couple examples: Snacks I Found, Frog Team.
