Richard quit tech to do stand-up… Oops! He started performing in San Francisco in 2011 and now lives in Los Angeles. He talks about his experience as a first generation Indian immigrant, mental illness, and his time in Silicon Valley. He has a half hour special on Dry Bar Comedy and 1.5 million followers on TikTok.

Watching Richard perform is hilariously unpredictable. He can be vulnerable or silly. He can be thoughtful or in-your-face. One minute he's talking about a taqueria that serves fortune churros, and the next minute he's bringing up Bitcoin. Whatever the subject matter, he'll find a way to make you laugh.

2020 had us all in a bit of a slump, so for our end of year team meeting we hired Richard Sarvate to help uplift our spirits as we looked forward to a brighter 2021. Richard was exactly the comedian we needed.  His friendly sarcasm accentuated by his funny delivery worked wonders! He had us all laughing from the get-go and by the end of his performance everyone had a smile on their face. We enjoyed it from beginning to end. Kudos to Richard!
