About MARCELA

Marcela was born in Kenya and moved to Texas when Marcela was twelve. It’s there that Marcela learned that y’all was a real word. Marcela moved from Texas to DC with hopes of changing the world but Marcela quickly became disillusioned by politics and sought comedy as an opportunity to discuss serious topics and frankly just complain about how terrible everything is.
