CollegeI took his "Clown Business" seminar for the Honors Program. Not only is he a former professional mime, but he also is an immensely caring dude who infuses his classes with life lessons, general wisdom, and captivating stories originating from his interestingly unique outlook on life. I feel lucky to have had him as one of my first UCSB professors.
