Chris Schell graduated from the University of Georgia in 2003 and decided to move to New York City two years later. He has been studying and performing long-form improv at the UCB theatre since early 2006, and his past instructors have included Joe Wengert, Charlie Todd, Chris Gethard, Jason Mantzoukas, and Michael Delaney. Chris can be seen performing all over New York with the independent improv team Machine Wash Tuxedo and the sketch group Disaronno on the Rocks. One of Chris’ proudest moments is when he conned his way into judging a Hawaiian Tropic bikini contest.
