Corporate Hosting
Darrin is a stand-out host of corporate conferences and award shows. He has been highly praised by past corporate clients including TD Bank, Reliance, and Fidelity Investments, and has earned rave reviews hosting shows such as the Kidscreen Awards in Miami, the Canadian Screen Awards, and is the six time host of Canada’s Most Admired CEO Awards.
Darrin creates bespoke comedy for each corporate audience, drawing from insider information. Before comedy, Darrin was a Brand Manager at Heinz, and before that was a software entrepreneur whose company had a dozen employees and raised millions in venture capital. So he understands the corporate world from the inside, and uses that to make his comedy connect.
Audiences will know him from his appearances on HBOmax, Netflix, Hulu, CBS, NBC, CBC and the BBC. He is often recognized for his roles on Mr. D, Letterkenny, The Late Late Show, Match Game and viral videos on social media.
