Andy Wood
Portland, OR
After abandoning the hardscrabble, hand-to-mouth existence of an electrical engineer for the stability of a career in standup comedy, Andy Wood has become a major contributor to comedy in the Pacific Northwest. He has performed at the Bumbershoot Arts Festival, DC's Bentzen Ball Comedy Festival, and Portland’s Bridgetown Comedy Festival, and has worked with comics such as Patton Oswalt, Todd Glass, Doug Benson and Janeane Garofalo.
As a former writer for XBox Live's disappointingly short-lived "1 vs. 100" game show, Andy is confident that if the producers of the Seattle International Comedy Competition would only agree to add a trivia round, his chances of early elimination would dip slightly.
