So busy in fact she has not had time to update her comedy website and hopes people give her some grace with the work-in-progress state of this place. Last night she became The Laughing Buddha Champion and will spend her summer nights performing at The Stand!
Yanjaa (pronounced yen-jaa) is one of the funniest, sexiest, and humblest, tallest (for an Asian woman - she’s 5’9”!) New York-based standup comedians— known for her explosive performances on Netflix, HBO, Got Talent and more.
With a passion for languages, culture and how technology impacts our lives, Yanjaa’s hilarious impersonations and observations, whether in her engaging videos or energetic live performances, transport you to a uniquely different goofy era of comedy.
As a top emerging voice in the comedy scene, Yanjaa’s already performed at legendary venues like The Comedy Cellar, Gotham Comedy Club, StandUp NY and The Stand and been invited to shows and festivals from Savannah to Amsterdam. She also performs sketch semi-regularly on the main stage of Brooklyn Comedy Collective and is learning improv at UCB.
She has collaborated with a diverse range of brands like Spotify and IKEA, and her work has been featured in various media outlets, network TV and streamers.
Yanjaa’s authentic voice and her ability to engage and connect with people is unparalleled and her goal in life is to make life feel a little lighter by making light of how bizarre all of this is.
