While in high school he participated in Central Touring Theatre Company (alongside fellow comedians Nick Swardson and Colton Dunn) as well as the swim team and later began performing at ComedySportz in Minneapolis.
Sanders worked at Bryant-Lake Bowl doing sound for comedy shows, while briefly attending the University of Minnesota. He then moved to New York City in 2001 where he began regularly performing improvisational comedy at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater (UCBT), where he was a member of the improv groups "Police Chief Rumble" and "Reuben Williams". In 2004 he and his improv team "Police Chief Rumble" won "Best Sketch Group" at the Emerging Comics of New York Awards. Sanders now performs at the UCBT's Los Angeles division with his current sketch group "Shitty Jobs".
