"For me it was very one foot in front of the other, let's see
where this goes but by no stretch of the imagination was I like,
'Oh this is what you're going to do with your life.' It was very
tentative." - Aparna Nancherla
During college Aparna (@aparnapkin) found herself directionless and
depressed. Aparna is now a full-time comedian and writer who has
written for Totally Biased with W Kamau Bell on FX and appeared on
Conan. Since our interview Aparna has written for the Late Show
with Seth Myers.
You'll hear Aparna discuss how she turned comedy into a career,
the power of patience, and that one of the biggest keys to success
is just showing up.
