Chicago-based actor and comedian Tyler James Finch specializes in charismatic, comedic characters with a little too much confidence and not quite enough self-awareness, alongside offbeat characters who are impossible not to like. A graduate of the iO Improv program, Tyler has worked across Chicago theater, improv, and film. He brings strong comedic instincts, specificity, and an easy naturalism to both stage and screen.
