Previously a Wall Street banker, MODI is also a cantor and was voted one of the top 10 comedians in New York by Hollywood Reporter.
His performance is part of Paperweight’s 36-hour Lightening the Load Campaign, which starts on Sunday and aims to raise funds for the free advice service, which helps people with legal, financial
and welfare issues.
