Since returning to California, he continues to stun audiences with his fabulous misadventures and bittersweet perspective.

She has appeared on Laughs (FOX), Comedy Time for The Ice House in Pasadena, and West Coast Comedy. Jill performs all over the country.

She has performed in Orange County and Los Angeles and was part of Hella Funny in San Francisco, performing at the Great Star Theater in 2014.
