Andrew Tarvin is the world's first Humor Engineer, a job title he clearly made up. Combining the logic-driven, solutions-focused, efficiency-obsessed brain of an engineer, with the engaging, entertaining spirit of a humorist, he teaches individuals and organizations a strategic process for getting better business results while having more fun.

Andrew began his corporate career at Procter & Gamble, where he managed million-dollar sales & IT projects for a $350 million business. In parallel, he launched his comedy career, performing 1,000+ shows on topics ranging from the quantification of love to leveraging corporate buzzwords to sound smart. An engineer by day, a humorist by night, Andrew quickly realized his new comedy and improvisation skills were helping him climb the corporate ladder, leading to recognition and awards for communication, coaching, and leadership.

In 2009, Andrew started Humor That Works, a leadership development company that teaches individuals and teams how to strategically leverage the skill of humor in the workplace. The company has since partnered with some of the world's leading organizations--including Microsoft, IBM, the United Nations, the FBI, and the Red Cross--to solve human challenges (such as employee engagement, workplace culture, and people replying-all to emails) with humor solutions.

Andrew is the best-selling author of three books, has been featured in The Wall Street Journal, Inc, and Fast Company, and was recently recognized as a ‘Visionary Under 40' by the P&G Alumni Network. His TEDx talk on the skill of humor has been viewed more than ten million times, only half of which were his mother.

He has delivered programs in 50 states, 30 countries, 6 continents, and on just about every virtual meeting platform there is (yes, even WebEx). He loves eating chocolate and tweeting puns.
