1) everybody should read Viktoria’s blog - seriously, if you’re interested in your health, read it (I mean, if you want to - just know that it’s a great read)!

About Me

I am a French-Iranian woman in New York. I have a passion for comedy, and have been lucky to be performing all over New York since 2010. I was a TV producer and a head writer for a morning live news show in France, as well as a free lance journalist and a book editor for many years.

Now, I am a life and a career coach (member of
ICF
) and a comedian, and an improviser and a show producer - because life is too short and I want it all!

Also, I believe in love.

I am a performer at the UCB & used to produce a show at The PIT in New York.

Check out my indie teams: Pou&Nic and PANTS!.

My other blog: International Comedy Team

My French blog: La Vie à l'Impro

I used to be involved with the Diversity Initiative at the UCB and manage their blog too: UCBDifference.tumblr.com

I fight cancer with a passion - I want to contribute to a world where cancer will be as benign as a simple cold. Where you can donate against cancer of any kind and give hope to families and patients
