Christina Wallace is originally from Chicago and started doing standup comedy in the late summer of 2018 after being unexpectedly signed up for an open mic by a seasoned comedian. After going on stage surprisingly comfortable and getting a good reaction from the crowd, she continued to hit weekly open mics with confidence. She has even received comedic training from Eddie Brill. When she's not on stage or working on comedic material, Christina can be found nerding out on sci-fi movies/blogs for "research" as a contributing writer of Omnarchy.com. As an Acting student at Second City, you can catch her face in the latest Chicago Bulls commercial, and her name in the credits for the latest indie film by Hugh Schultz entitled “Dreaming Grand Avenue”. She recently moved to LA to take Writing classes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just moved to LA and need to get situated. My family is all spread out so I can't stay with them. I need someone in DTLA who can help me navigate the city so that I can feel comfortable getting around LA and living here.
