Weirdo! | Ron G | TEDxYouth@ColumbiaSC

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Using your quirks in life to create opportunities to work, and finding power in that.

Ron G began his stand up career in Atlanta, GA, being crowned 1st place winner of the 2005 Sierra Mist Late Night Laff Off. Upon moving to Los Angeles to further his comedic and acting career, he won as a finalist on the two hit TV shows Bill Bellamy's "Who's Got Jokes" and NBC's Last Comic Standing. If that wasn't enough, on his very first commercial audition he was booked as National spokesperson for Checker's & Rally's Restaurants. This rising star has been seen numerous times on Vh1's Greatest and also received the prestigious "College Comic of the Year" award in 2010. Winning the praises of esteemed comedians such as Martin Lawrence and Sherri Shepherd peaks Ron G's career highlights thus far. After gaining his first standing ovation only eight months in the game, he knew he found his calling. Ron G recently graced the big screen as leading man in the new family comedy, Margarine Wars, opposite legendary actress Doris Roberts. He aims to represent the new generation of comedy with his unique and clever talent. Watch out world...Ron G is destined to be the next Great King of Comedy!
