Comedy Instructor, Stand-Up Comic, Late-Night Comedy Writer
Scott Blakeman leads our "Engagement Team, " our travel and tourism facilitators and "Travel Chat" hosts, whom we call "Wowzers," as Head of Host Acquisition and Training.
His decades-long career as a standup, commentator, and instructor makes him the perfect fit for Wowzitude: he knows how to add the sparkle to any conversation, and he's a pro at bringing it out in others.
Scott Blakeman is New York's most popular standup comedy instructor, having taught the Standup Comedy Workshop at The New School in New York for 25 years, and now offers it privately, with group classes and one on one coaching, both in person and via Zoom.
Scott was the warmup comedian for the Late Show with David Letterman, the CBS sitcom Welcome To New York, and Politically Incorrect with Bill Maher. His hundreds of stand-up students have even included Jon Stewart!
Scott is also a self-described "travel junkie," who reads all things travel, and has traveled to most places in the United States, and performed his comedy routines around the world.
