Born in Queens, Jim's natural flair for comedy developed early on the toughest of audiences - family gatherings! Routines from the comedy greats quickly became his measuring tool, and Jim rapidly rose through the comedy ranks with lifelong friends such as Tim Allen, Jerry Seinfeld and Collin Quinn. After many years in comedy clubs, Jim joined the cast of ABC's hit sitcom, Home Improvement and entered the living rooms of millions of Americans. He later appeared in the #1 movie, The Santa Clause. Alongside his film career, Jim continued to play sold-out venues with his edgy, New York-based comedy act. 

Raised as a Roman Catholic, ethics were taught to Jim at an early age: however, his stand-up routine was "adult-focused" and did not reflect his values. During the success of Home Improvement and subsequent opportunities, he purposed to develop a comedy that was hilarious, of course, but would also be uplifting and available to all audiences. He created the clean comedy act that is now his trademark!

Today, Jim's stand-up show has appeared before countless fans and attendees across the country. He frequently appears on television. A skilled performer, he is adept at hosting conferences, stand-up and commentary.

Internationally known comedian, speaker, and closet magician, Derrick Tennant travels the world sharing the story of how he overcame overwhelming obstacles to become the leader is he today.

Derrick Michael Tennant made the most of a tragedy in his life by creating an opportunity for a career. As a promising athlete, Derrick was progressing in his dream for a career in sports when one evening he laid down but did not wake up for three days.

He had undergone what doctors would later term random bleeding from point x for an unknown reason. Paralyzed and in a coma, Derrick underwent brain surgery from which he became unable to move his left side. It would take years of therapy to re-learn the basics like walking, talking and simple daily tasks. Derrick is still unable to use his left arm and he walks with a limp, but he has learned a lot through this process.

Derrick credits one thing for his ability to make it through this process not only alive, but also learning and growing: LOVE. Receiving love from his family, his friends, and his God combined with learning to better demonstrate love in the midst of difficulty were essential to Derricks survival and vitality. After brain surgery, years of rehab and life in a wheelchair; he ultimately got on his feet again. Despite the very limited use of his left side, Derrick loves life and “looks on the RIGHT side” of things. He communicates the importance of shifting obstacles in life, work or business into opportunities.

He worked hard to overcome physical challenges and now works just as hard to help others overcome trials through his comedy, magic and inspirational speaking.
