Kyleigh Johnson

I’m a queer, Oakland based painter, comedian, and good friend. I am also a proud amateur wake boarder and snow boarder.

I am the youngest of four with a lot to prove. I’m always having an allergic reaction to something but that doesn’t stop me. I love babies, art, and making people laugh. When I’m not talking about my big feelings, you can find me taking pictures of my 🍑 somewhere near a river. Please let me hold your baby.

My pride and joy is co-producing Bad Art, an Oakland based comedy show that explores creativity and failure through the lens of improvised comedy.

I am on the main stage cast at All Out Comedy Theater performing and teaching improv in Oakland, CA.

Currently, I work at Hinge and teach fitness. Feel free to ask me about dating apps, CX ops, and pushups.

Background

I studied Social Work and Childhood Education at New York University & graduated Magna Cum Laude. While in school I performed with Dangerbox, NYU’s oldest comedy improv team.

I studied acting with Suzanne Esper at William Esper Studio and improv at Upright Citizens Brigade Theater in NYC .

I have built and contributed to youth engagement programs in the South Bronx, Lower-Manhattan, and Abu Dhabi.

I am always thinking about redesigning society to better embrace the people that make it up.
