Ariel Elias is a comedian living in New York City. Growing up, this Kentucky Jew made everyone laugh at her bat mitzvah, and the rest is history. Today, her comedy is a fun mesh of unique, personal stories mixed with witty and wry observations. Ariel has been described as “a sly young comic from Kentucky” by the New York Times. She is also a contributing writer to As Goes Wisconsin, a news and politics-based show for, you guessed it, Wisconsin. Notably, she has written for Will Smith’s Snapchat show Will From Home, and performed on the set of Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. She regularly performs at socially-distanced and relatively safe venues such as rooftops, parks, and parking lots. She is even learning to enjoy zoom. When not performing or writing, she’s probably petting a dog or struggling through a puzzle.

As immigrants to this country from India, Reshma and her family had to build a new life from the ground up and make every dollar work for them. Once her parents got a foothold in the US, they made sure to bring their friends and families up with them by housing them until they could afford a home of their own. A graduate of MIT, Reshma served as an advisor to the NYC Comptroller’s office for almost a decade, including during one of the City’s darkest moments, 9/11. Today, her beloved City is going through another crisis. This past year has shown a failure of government on many levels and highlighted that our City is not serving all its people equally. Reshma is running for NYC Comptroller because right now our City needs to be able to stretch a dollar far like her parents taught her and to make sure that all New Yorkers are better served as we rebuild.
