Hi! I’m Karen and I’m an Emmy-losing writer, comedian, and aspiring fisherman. Welcome to my page!!!1!~*

Since you’re probably here to read about me ol’ career… I’m currently staffed on the second season of HBO’s ROOSTER; I recently wrote for the upcoming Amy Poehler + Mike Schur series DIG (Peacock). Previously, I wrote for A MAN ON THE INSIDE (Netflix), PACHINKO (Apple TV), LATE NIGHT WITH SETH MEYERS, and other programs. I also appeared briefly on shows like HIGH MAINTENANCE and THE GREAT NORTH, and contributed regularly to The New Yorker’s Shouts & Murmurs.

As a comedian, I’ve performed at venues like Carnegie Hall, the Greek Theater, the Kennedy Center (rip), and way too many dank basements in New York. I was featured on Vulture’s Comedians to Know, Variety’s Power of Young Hollywood, and Forbes 30 Under 30 (cringe, sorry). If you like public radio, you might also catch me on NPR’s Wait Wait… Don’t Tell Me! where I am a regular panelist and occasional guest host.

About me ol’ personal life… I grew up in the Bay Area, where I spent my childhood playing soccer and going to Costco. In college I majored in History & Literature and minored in taking improv too seriously. Now I live in Brooklyn Seoul Los Angeles. For more personal info, buy me dinner first!!
