My name is Karthik Raj and I am an NYC based actor, stand-up comedian, and writer. Upon graduation from NYU's Tisch School of the Arts with a degree in Theatre, I began auditioning for major film, television, & stage productions.

I have filmed commercials for Tinder, Nike, and more. I've been doing stand-up for a little over 2 years, performing all around New York City. I currently produce a show at BKLYN Comedy Club the first Sunday of each month.

​

As a writer, I have most recently written a comedy TV pilot that is in the top 5% of CoverFly scripts. I also placed as a Finalist in the Chicago Screenplay Awards and a Semi-Finalist in the ScreenCraft Comedy Competition.
