Originally from the Bay Area, Salma Zaky moved to Los Angeles to attend college, where she began her comedy journey. Her parents are somewhat supportive of her stand-up endeavors, which makes it really hard to live as a brooding comedian who strives to exploit her Egyptian and French background. 

She has released mini specials with OFTV (unfortunately clothed), Don't Tell Comedy, Cracked Comedy, and was named a "Comic to Watch" at the '24 New York Comedy Festival. Most recently, she appeared as a contestant on Funny AF with Kevin Hart on Netflix.

Her stand-up group, Firecracker Comedy, recorded their debut album with Blonde Medicine—now streaming on all platforms. Zaky currently lives in New York City, where she continues to take both her anxiety and her career to new heights.
