## Early life[edit]

Seiss was born in Dundalk, Maryland, a suburb of Baltimore, in 1994. His father was absent in his life, and so he grew up with his mother and sister.[1] Seiss was a graduate of Eastern Technical High School in Essex and the University of Maryland Baltimore County. Seiss's TikTok videos have attracted famous people such as LeBron James, and Patton Oswalt.

## Career[edit]

Seiss had worked at an IKEA call center from 2016 to 2019, which gave him the inspiration for the videos.[2] He has opened for comedians such as Josh Wolf, Roy Wood Jr., and Bo Burnham, and is based in New York.[1] Seiss's TikTok videos revolve around him posing as both an irritated retail worker, and a customer who is upset (colloquially known as "Karen (slang)|Karens"). The customer, who yells out something that shows that they are upset at the store (what makes the customer upset is not normally shown). The employee retaliates with a snarky remark.[2]

In 2021, Seiss was cast in the movie Cocaine Bear, directed by Elizabeth Banks.[3]
