Coy's comedic expressions are taken from simple everyday living; and everyday living is how Coy 's talent was discovered. As a native New Yorker, Coy began making people laugh while riding the bus. Coy believed, if he could make people laugh through everyday encounters, he could possibly make people laugh on stage. Coy proceeded with his mission to do just that, pursue his passion for comedy professionally and with great excellence.

He started captivating audiences on numerous college campuses from UCLA to Howard University in Washington D.C. It didn't take long for his talent to be nationally known.
Coy was awarded first place by a panel of judges in the Chosen Competition, in his region which he was given the opportunity to display his talent in New York City. As a result, Coy was a runner up in the International Boston Comedy Festival where he was chosen above 200 International comedians. Coy's uncanny ability to make people laugh is unbelievable, and his comic timing is unstoppable. His audience is very diverse (anyone that has a gut to bust). His bright eyes, deep smile and natural wit are an automatic magnet that makes an everlasting first impression.
