Growing up, Jojo’s father nicknamed him “Mr. Funny Guy” as he was always the one to make everyone laugh. He did not realize he would enjoy making a career out of entertaining until he was asked to do an open mic night as a favor to his cousin and loved how he made the crowd react.
In 2017 Jojo met N.O.R.E, one of his favorite media personalities, and that experience gave him the drive to continue doing comedy on a more professional level. After that Jojo’s raw and authentic stand up has gone on to win comedy competitions at Visani Restaurant and Theater in Port Charlotte, McCurdy’s Comedy Theatre in Sarasota, Laugh in Comedy Café in Fort Myers, Winner of Blue Ridges funniest 2022 competition, and Winner of Louisville funniest comic. He has also performed at Tampa Improv Comedy Theater and the Miami Improv and Carolines on Broadway in New York City.
Jojo has hosted for some great comedians such as Damon Wayans from Major Payne, My wife and kids, and In Living Color.
