DISCOVERING
HIS VOICE
In addition to music and comedy, Plante is also a
skilled writer and has published several works of poetry
and short stories available for sale on Amazon.
He holds a master of science in marketing from
Yeshiva University and a master of fine arts in creative
writing and is working on a master of arts in Jewish
Studies from Spertus University.
His published works cover Judaism, family dynamics,
the COVID-19 pandemic and the experience of having
a midlife crisis. As an avid reader, Plante enjoys the
works of David Sedaris and classics such as Ernest
Hemingway and John Steinbeck.
Outside of work, Plante spends his time playing video
games and soccer with his son. Yet for now, he’s thrilled
to bring his Matzo Ball Tour to Metro Detroit this
summer.
“I’m finding my voice,” he says of his unique style.
“I’m exploring and having fun.”
