Adam Pasi
Adam Pasi is a stand up comedian from Portland, Oregon.
Having been a northwest staple for years, he’s recently started to gain more notoriety with a set on Don’t Tell Comedy, as well as an episode of the newly released PBS series Roots of Comedy.
Often intense, but never taking himself too seriously, Adam enjoys bringing (sometimes dragging) others along as he picks apart the absurdity of his own life and the world in which he lives.
