About Me

Hi, I'm Alyssa.
(That's me in the photo.)
​
I’m a writer and producer currently working in Business & Legal Affairs at Anonymous Content. Back in my youth (aka a year ago) I studied film production at the University of Southern California. A self-proclaimed dad joke connoisseur, I strive to find the comedy in all situations and hope to showcase these moments in my work.
​
I’d love to one day follow in the footsteps of Mindy Kaling, Tina Fey, or Amy Poehler and become a comedy TV showrunning writer/producer/director extraordinaire.
Or at least become one of those!
​
Some of my interests include:
-
Comedy in all forms — improv, sketch, standup
-
Satire and absurdism as means of making serious observations of society
-
Late night monologues as a way to stay informed without having daily mental breakdowns
-
Documentaries about obscure topics — think Vice and Vox
