Shelley Kim fostered her love for stand-up comedy in college while remaining ignorant of any party scene. She can be seen performing and hosting all around the DMV area, sharing her insight as a savvy-yet-awkward minority female in the 21st century. She also co-produced the Underground Comedy Fest 2017, a DC festival with over 60 comedians and national headliners in conjunction with Underground Comedy (named “DC’s Laugh Leader” by Washington Post).

A versatile millennial who likes to stay busy, Shelley is consistently churning out satire on social media. Her projects include a kim.com/stuff-i-made/mike-pences-pinterest-boards/">Mike Pence Pinterest boards, Skim.com/stuff-i-made/steve-bannons-spotify-selects/">teve Bannon Spotify Sessions, and kim.com/stuff-i-made/alternative-valentines/">Alternative Valentine’s– a series of Valentine’s card based on our nation’s favorite political administration.  

Other than being a participant in DC’s favorite mudslinging hobby, Shelley is a self-aware sports fan. One of her most popular creations is kim.com/stuff-i-made/coach-taylors-yelp-reviews-2/">Coach Taylor’s Yelp Reviews, a series of restaurant reviews from Coach Taylor of Friday Night Lights, a TV show Shelley is obsessed with.

Whether it’s online or onstage, Shelley’s work is seriously not serious, and her unique insights are framed in a silly, disarming way. She’s one of DC’s rising stars, so check out one of her projects above, or see her live. Or just say hi on Instagram at @machinegunshelley_ Your attention would mean a lot to her.
