These are the comedians that are currently plying their trade and honing their craft on their way to becoming the stars of tomorrow.

Fueled by the encouragement of his family and friends, he has since gone on to establish himself as a powerhouse performer around the country. His Comedy Central stand-up set will debut this Fall. Ashton is currently a staff-writer at The Daily Show on Comedy Central. Prior to that, Ashton wrote for the 2021 Grammy Awards and MTV’s TRL.

On screen, Ashton can be seen on Comedy Central’s Alternatino, Vice Live and in the upcoming Paramount feature film Clifford. In 2018, he was selected as a New Face in the prestigious Just For Laughs Comedy festival where he performed in front of veritable entertainment industry leaders.
