Career
Reynolds began his career in Chicago at the age of 18. He graduated from the IO Training Center and the Second City Conservatory in Chicago, and performed regularly at IO Chicago, The Annoyance, Chemically Imbalanced Comedy, The Playground, and Upstairs Gallery.[5] He was also a part of the Kill All Comedy collective along with comedians Conner O'Malley and Gary Richardson.[6]
Reynolds has said he based his Search Party character Drew Gardner on his experience growing up in the Midwest: "I grew up in Madison, Wisconsin, and I based him as a guy I would know in the Midwest who sees his brothers grow up a certain way, and wants to maintain that status quo with his family, and doesn’t want to be in any spotlight."
In 2023 Reynolds co-performed the live comedy show No Tengo Escuela with comedian Carmen Christopher, with performances at Union Hall in New York[7] and the Soho Theatre in London.
