2015-11-09

Born in Malaysia, and raised in New Hampshire USA and Singapore, Ronny attended FS in 2004, graduating from the University of Melbourne with degrees in Commerce and Law in 2010.

From his first stand-up comedy gig at a College Comedy competition in 2009, he continued to do stand-up comedy in Australia, USA, Malaysia and 鈥渢he 2nd floor men鈥檚 bathroom at the MLS鈥.

From there he went on to sell-out live shows, win international competitions and generally become one of Australia鈥檚 most loved and in-demand comedic exports!

Highly awarded in 2014 as winner at both the Melbourne and Sydney Comedy Festivals, Ronny also received nominations for The Best Comedy Performer in the Helpmann Awards and for 鈥楥leo Bachelor of the Year鈥.

It was great when in 2013 Ronny came back to Trinity and spoke to the students about the challenges he had when he first came to Australia and how his career unfolded.
