ABOUT ME

You might recognize Jenna Robino from something, but probably not Netflix or The Comedy Store. She hasn't been on those yet. Recently, she was spotted at brunch in Williamsburg, Brooklyn by a fan. "Excuse me, miss. Are you an actress?" he said. She is, and she said yes, but could he have been mistaking her for someone else? Hard to say. In 2016, she was the recipient of the, "Oh my God, you look JUST like my friend/this actor!" award more than 37 times (or more than 42, if comments from drunk people count).

Jenna's worked and lived all over the country, tricking people into thinking she's from somewhere other than Pennsylvania with her menagerie of believable foreign accents. If her high school superlative award is to be believed, she was made for the stage and screen (specifically SNL. Maya Rudolph, I want to work with you. Also, tell Don Ray King I said wassup). Since moving to NYC in 2013, her voice and face have been featured in ads for Google, Cuisinart, Ergobaby, Outback Steakhouse, Skip the Dishes, and more, allowing her to not only pay her rent in Astoria but for someone else to clean her apartment. All in all, Jenna's come a long way from her post-grad years in Arizona, where she was singing cover songs for baby boomers in four-star Italian restaurants. No, really, that's like 2,400 miles. So if you wanna pitch in gas money, that's cool.
