Jon Smet
he/him
Washington Improv TheaterJon Smet is from Rochester, Minnesota, home of the iconic Corn on the Cob Water Tower.
Jon jumped into improv at WIT in January 2026 and has loved every moment of it. His commutes are filled with improv podcasts, his nightstand is stacked with improv books, and his YouTube search history is filled with old, obscure Harold sets. Occasionally, he’ll take a short break to live his life so he can pull from new life experiences in his next scene.
Jon performs with the indie team Dearest and joined the Harold program in October 2026.
Outside of improv, Jon is a robotics engineer and has an obsession with all racket sports. One time, Jon and his friend faced the best pickleball player in the world in a 2v1 matchup for a $2,000 prize and lost by a lot.
