Paul Rivaz, the "World's Tallest Dancing Mexican," is an actor and comedian from Chicago with roots in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico. As the eldest of six, his charisma shone early. He studied Graphic Design and Web Development at the University of Illinois, also thriving as an event host. Post-college, Paul's love for performance led him to The Second City, Chicago, where he mastered improvisation. Now in Colorado and New Mexico, he excels in improv, stand-up, and acting, notably as the "fun Latino Dad."
Known for his infectious energy and unique blend of Jimmy Fallon and Ray Romano's looks, Paul's on-screen presence and graphic/web design skills make him a multifaceted talent. He's not just an actor, but a storyteller and comedian, captivating audiences with his humor and charm.
