Born in Utah, Ford began his improv journey shortly after coming home from an LDS mission in 2023. Besides being Provo's most eligible bachelor, Ford is the owner of Adpulse Creative and works at Comedybox, to take on the family business. While Ford does not have kids or a wife, he has three roommates who need to learn how to wash their dishes.

Annie has worked professionally as a joke writer, social media producer, and public speaker. When she’s not onstage at ComedyBox Utah, you might find her training at an American Ninja Warrior gym or polishing a stage show all about Parley P. Pratt.
