#68 Paul Mecurio- Wall Street to the Comedy Club
Today on What Got You There Sean talks with comedian Paul Mecurio. After graduating Georgetown Law School with high honors, Paul worked as a lawyer on Wall Street at a top tier international law firm and as an investment banker, executing multi-billion dollar M&A transactions for Fortune 100 companies.
While on Wall Street Paul was hired by Jay Leno to write jokes for “The Tonight Show.” After living a secret double life as a Wall Street lawyer/banker by day and comedian by night, Paul left Wall Street to go into entertainment full time … if he didn’t he would have had a nervous breakdown trying to keep the two worlds separate. It has been a hard road to the successful comedic career Paul has today but one he wouldn’t change.
