Marcus Williams is a stand-up comedian cleverly disguised as a structural engineer—because health insurance doesn’t come with a two-drink minimum. A finalist in the 2023 San Francisco International Comedy Competition (he didn’t win, but he made everyone nervous), Marcus has hit the stage at the San Francisco Punchline, Cobb’s Comedy Club, and countless other venues that had a microphone, a light, and questionable fire safety codes. He’s performed in New York, Denver, and pretty much anywhere willing to exchange laughs for stage time.
