Denson was born in Detroit, Michigan and later attended Michigan State University where he earned a degree in packaging engineering and was a member of the school’s martial arts team. While attending Michigan State, he began to explore stand up comedy and comedy writing by performing at local nightclubs and creating his own sketch comedy TV series that aired locally in Lansing, MI. Standup comedy would eventually lead him to win several competitions and land him an appearance on USA’s Up All Night with Gilbert Godfrey.

Chris was a great guest! We had a great talk about creativity in the 21st century and the role tech plays in the evolution of creative entrepreneurship. We delve into his philosophy of innovation and how his history in stand-up comedy and martial arts shaped his successful career.
