LEAH KAYAJANIAN
Born in Boston and raised in small town Oklahoma, Leah developed a one-of-a-kind comedic voice that has made her a must-see performer in Oklahoma City, Los Angeles, and most recently, Chicago. While widely known for her writing chops and her “legend” status in LA’s roast battle scene, Leah’s been entertaining audiences all over the country with her authentic onstage presence for over 15 years.
Leah’s career highlights include TV appearances on Comedy Central's Road to Roast Battle (2016), Roast Battle II (2017), and Fox’s Laughs TV (2015, 2016). Leah was a featured performer on LA Riot Fest (2016) and Portland’s highly-acclaimed Bridgetown Comedy Festival (2013, 2015). She won the title of LA’s first Roast Battle Champion in 2016, was a semifinalist on NBC’s 2014 Standup for Diversity Showcase, and in 2009, was named “Funniest Person in Oklahoma City.”
During her time in LA, Leah was a regular performer at the World Famous Comedy Store and the Hollywood Improv. Throughout her career, she has performed at clubs in New York, Chicago, Las Vegas, San Francisco, San Diego, Fort Worth, Boston, Denver, Wichita, Little Rock, Oklahoma City, Tulsa, and Palm Springs.
In addition to performing stand-up, Leah co-hosts the comedy podcast, What’s Your Beef? Nicknamed “Coach” by her best buds, Leah always looks for some friendly competition, especially on the softball field, and enjoys time outdoors with the family, hiking, running 5ks, and doing other obnoxious things like that. She currently resides in Chicago with her hot husband, two kids, and attention-hogging dog.
