ABOUT ME
Hi! I’m Tatjana—a Serbian-American comedy writer and improviser based in Los Angeles.
​
I grew up in Ohio, survived a quarter-life crisis (looking at you, STEM), and earned my MFA in Comedy Screenwriting from DePaul University before heading west with big dreams and a car full of emotional baggage.
​
Currently, I’m training in improv and sketch at The Groundlings, building bold, bizarre characters that somehow still feel like your aunt. My writing spans horror-comedy to heartfelt satire, and my short film Lost Boys Pizza has screened at festivals across the U.S.
​
Before diving into comedy full-time, I worked as an executive assistant to top-tier managers and CEOs—learning the business side of storytelling (and how to reschedule a Zoom 20 times without losing my mind).
​
Fluent in English and Serbian (plus a little French if you’re patient), I bring a Balkan edge to every project: fearless choices, full-body commitment, and just the right amount of yelling.
​
Let’s make something funny.

Tatjana recently passed Improv Lab at The Groundlings and is currently studying Improv Writing with the legendary Phyllis Katz. ​
