Born in Colorado and reared in northern Illinois, Karisa has always been spunky and had a severe case of joie-de-vivre. From her first role in kindergarten as the Old Lady in the musical Stone Soup ("What kind of soup?!") until now, she has loved bringing stories to life more than anything else. After graduating from Dartmouth with a double major in Spanish Literature and Theater, Karisa moved to NYC to further her acting training. While in New York, she realized her profound love for making people laugh, so she headed back to the Midwest and the mecca of comedy so she could learn to make people laugh better. Her Chicago experience includes an iO Harold team, teams at both The Playground and CIC, as well as multiple original shows and musicals at The Annoyance Theater. See some of her work here.
