Arijana Ramic is a charming, but devious, standup comedian and writer originally from Seattle, WA. You can now find her taking the LA scene by storm and even working at the Comedy Store as a “door guy.” Arijana is able to sweetly navigate dark topics like growing up with Bosnian immigrant parents, identifying as Type A, and sadness, all with a smile on her face. Arijana has opened for the likes of Jesus Trejo, Annie Lederman, Chris Redd, and Pauly Shore. She has performed in competitions and festivals including The Seattle International Comedy Competition (2019), Madison Comedy Week (2021), and was among Best of the Fest at the Burbank Comedy Festival (2022). You may have read her satirical musings on sites like Flexx Mag, Slackjaw, or THE FOREIGNER, of which she is the Founder & Editor. She also directs, produces, and performs in digital sketch groups like “Aisha & Arijana” and “Diverse Group of Friends.” Or, you might recognize her voice from the Burning the Light podcast. She once overheard a headliner she was working with describe her comedy as “spicy” and that accounts for 92% of her ego.
