Nasim Pedrad Quotes
At the time, I was in L.A., just auditioning and hoping to land a part, dramatic or comedic. I started to feel really stagnant, waiting for a part. I was also taking classes at UCB and Groundlings, and at the higher levels, they focus on writing. It was such a relief to be able to write.

She recommended me to audition for SNL, so I got my first of two auditions through her.
