Aisha got her comedy start at the J. Eugene McAteer School of the Arts in San Francisco, where she routinely cut class to sneak into Improv comedy classes. Eventually the teachers got tired of wondering who the tall black girl with the bizarre sense of humor was, and asked her to stay (trust me, it was just easier that way). For most of Aisha's childhood she was out of place, a fish out of water, a fly in the ointment. The result is hilariously personal comedy. "I take the most wrenchingly painful moments of my life, brush them off, and present them for the amusement of others. Lucky for me, my childhood was torture."

Aisha continued performing sketch and theater at Dartmouth College. After graduating with a degree in Political Science (hey, being a lawyer seemed like a good idea at the time, until she realized drinking for free and staying out until 4 am weren't part of the gig), she attacked comedy full time, working clubs and colleges in thirty states before finally settling in Los Angeles.

In the short time since she arrived in LA, she's appeared on television shows including Politically Incorrect, The List, The Pretender, The Martin Short Show, Comedy Central, and Louie Anderson's Comedy Showcase. She's also appeared in the films Dancing in September, Metro, Grand Avenue and the edgy independent short film The Whipper, among others.

Aisha was recently picked by Daily Variety as "a breakthrough talent headed for an impact on comedy." Reviewers have called her act "hip, wry, and thoroughly unconventional." She performs frequently at the Laugh Factory on the Sunset Strip and The Improvisation on Melrose. She also performs daily in front of the television in her living room in her underwear, but tickets to those shows are VIP only.
