That came to an end when he was accepted to the University of California, Merced. Vaca has since been pursuing his dream in stand-up comedy and recently just won the 16th annual StandUp NBC competition! He has shared the stage with revered industry comedians such as Bill Burr, Ken Jeong, Amir K., Jamie Kennedy and much more!
