Born and raised in West Hills, Gilli is the quintessential southern California girl, unless she is feeling cultural in which case she will tell you she was raised by Israeli parents.

After earning a degree in Political Science with a minor in
English at UCSB, Gilli returned to Los Angeles and reemerged with many of her college improv alumni as part of the troupe Sticky Nights, who can be seen performing at venues throughout Los Angeles. Gilli was a member of the WCT House team Mad Hugs, and is now incredibly proud and grateful to be part of the UCB fold with a place on the Harold team, Winslow.

Gilli also performs stand up comedy all over LA including the Comedy Store,The Ice House, The Westside Comedy Theater; Flappers, has hosted the UCB open mic, and would love to do your show as well. Thank you.
