Comedian and actor, he’s best known for being a cast member on the iconic weekly sketch comedy show Saturday Night Live. He joined the SNL team during its 41st season, which aired from 2015 to 2016, bringing fresh energy and standout performances that quickly made him a fan favorite. As his career progressed, he continued to expand his reach in the entertainment world—by 2019, he took on a leading role in Hulu’s dramatic miniseries Catch-22, showcasing his range beyond comedy. Before all the spotlight, though, he laid the groundwork for success by earning a degree in acting from the University of Southern California. His talent was evident early on; back in 2012, he claimed victory in the Laugh Factory’s Laugh Bowl, a national college stand-up comedy competition that helped launch his name into the comedy scene. Growing up in Harrington Park, New Jersey, he developed a passion for performance that eventually led him to move to Los Angeles, California, where he pursued his dreams in entertainment. On a personal note, he’s been linked romantically to Courtney Grant, adding another layer to his public story. Throughout it all, he’s remained a dynamic presence in both comedy and drama, steadily building a reputation as a versatile and dedicated performer.
He really started gaining attention after a series of YouTube videos he appeared in went viral, and let’s be honest, that kind of exposure doesn’t happen overnight. Among the most popular were “True Detective: Oscar Parody” and “Straight Outta Newport,” both of which played a big role in boosting his visibility. He uploaded these videos to his own eponymous channel—yeah, the one named after him—and it quickly became clear that people were paying attention. In fact, “True Detective: Oscar Parody” alone racked up over 1 million views, which definitely helped solidify his presence online. It was around that time that he began standing out, not just as another creator, but as someone with a unique voice. And honestly, once you’ve got a video hitting that kind of milestone, doors start opening.
