Maxi Witrak is a nineties kid living in a modern world. After a heavily regimented upbringing as a competitive equestrian, her stand-up comedy speaks about standing up to the status quo, chasing her teenage dreams, and going back to being a nerdy girl who at one point simply loved horses.
She has performed around the world, including appearing twice at Boom Chicago Comedy Festival in Amsterdam, hosting Windsor Comedy Festival, and appearing regularly at the world famous Hollywood Improv and Comedy Store.
When not performing or filming, she can be found drumming in her female rock band Mik&Maxi around LA at venues like the historic Whisky A Go Go and Viper Room. Her credits include the ABC sitcom “Maggie”, CBS’s “The Bold and the Beautiful”, Brat TV’s “Stage Fright”, as well as her own webseries, “TrainTraks with Maxi Witrak.”
