I live in New York. I am a stand up comic, writer and actor. You may have seen my writing on many reputable websites (The Huffington Post, Hello Giggles, xojane.com, The Hairpin, Splitsider, The FW, etc.). I also write crazy blogs about Game of Thrones, Magneto and Jeff Goldblum. I was formerly member of the PITtv House Team, Codswallop.

Moar Shows
Also, my PIT Intro to Sketch Acting Grad Shows are this coming Sunday (5/27) and the following Sunday (6/3) at 7pm (at the PIT). I’ll be performing roles once made famous by Kristen Wiig, Kristen Wiig and Vanessa Bayer.
And, I’m doing stand up on Sunday as well at Daws of Jeath at the PIT. I’ll do stand up and then people will improvise off of my jokes. Whoa! That’s at 9:30pm (5/27).
And I’m doing stand up at Cold Soda at the PIT on 6/5.
And also on 6/5, I’m doing a weird panel thing at Buzzfeed with like, social media and beauty blogging people, because that makes sense.
Come see me perform!
Reserve yo tickets! Come to the show! Stay afterwards and say hi to me at the bar and watch how awkward it makes me feel!

Get yer tickets!
(Yeah, I realize this is going to be a tough one for me to write for. I don’t know, maybe I will talk for five minutes about my cat!)
Spend an evening with the writers and correspondents of hellogiggles.com [hellogiggles.com] and their uncensored stories about their Sweethearts. The Sweetheart Special…Hosted By Ruby Karp
Good news, goons! My pet project for 2012*, a show called Dorothy Parker’s Salon of Spirits, is going to be at the PIT on Sunday, April 15, 8pm.
This show is a big deal to me. It’s going to be a dark variety/talk/sketch show that features me as Dorothy Parker welcoming her famous dead friends into her afterlife apartment to talk about things like art and booze and being dead. Basically, it’s going to be like this clip from Dorothy Parker and the Vicious Circle, but funny.
I need to find out if I can use dry ice at the PIT. Ta-ta!
*My pet project for 2011, Julie Bell on Julie Bell: A Retrospective on Julie Bell, is returning to ImprovBoston’s Geek Week at the end of April. Fun, right?
What’s happening
What happened last night: So yeah, Gaby and I were supposed to do a Ustream thing, but Ustream was down. We will do one in the near future LIVE from my apartment in Queens. There will be wine and I will try to get Lucius on the camera. However, Lucius hates Ustream.
What’s happening tonight: 7pm the world premiere of MEGBitang—a two-prov group consisting of me and Phil Magbitang at the PIT. Whoa! Be there!
What’s happening tomorrow: 9pm The Hello Giggles show at the UCBeast! Whoa! Be there!
