He is the founder of Humor for Humanity a new social enterprise which raises spirits, funds and awareness for nonprofits and social causes through his work as a comedian, emcee, and auctioneer. Since the pandemic, Humor for Humanity, through live and online fundraisers has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for nonprofit organizations and needy individuals.

After earning a master’s degree in public administration from Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government (where he was the graduate school commencement speaker for his class in 2010), he ran for lieutenant governor of Massachusetts on the Democratic ticket in 2018. As a first-time candidate for public office, he received 41% of the vote in the Massachusetts Democratic primary.

Tingle has the rare distinction of being a three-time Boston Magazine’s “Best of Boston” winner. He’s won twice in the “stand-up comedy” category and once for “best alternative theater” as the producing artistic director of Jimmy Tingle’s OFF-BROADWAY Theater in Somerville, MA.
