Description
Hello! I'm Justin from San Francisco, California.
What mainly gives me joy and happiness is making others smile and laugh -- I’m a professional comedian/actor. I’ve been pursuing a career in Hollywood, but recently have decided to take a hiatus to travel. When I’m not performing, I like to explore my other interests related to my past work experience in health (as a registered nurse), and my passion for working with children.
It excites me to get out of my comfort zone and expand my horizons by immersing myself in a different culture. While at university, I studied abroad in Mexico, and ever since then, I’ve developed a travel bug whose bite has brought me around the globe, including various countries in Europe, Asia, numerous states in the U.S., and now South America.

More details about your skills
I have 20+ years of work experience with children and youth (ages 3-17), including working as a Summer day-camps counselor; preschool teacher’s aide; playwright mentor for Juvenile adolescents; kids’ birthday party entertainer; and as an English teacher for school-aged children in Italy.
Moreover, I was commissioned to write a full length middle school play that was then acted by students. I’ve also worked with adults of different ages as a sketch comedy writing teacher.
I’m educated in health, as I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing, and before switching career paths to become a professional entertainer, I worked as a registered nurse at San Francisco General Hospital.
I can speak conversational Spanish, and I hope, if given the opportunity, to improve my language skills through various volunteer homestays.

What else ...
I play piano -- As a child, I was classically trained, however, I cannot read sheet music, but given enough time, can memorize piano pieces and play simple tunes by ear.
Back home, in San Francisco, I enjoy staying physically active by frequenting the gym 3x/week, and riding my bike throughout the city and Bay Area.
