Wally Baram

Wally Baram is a Mexican-Syrian stand-up comedian, writer, and actress living in NYC.

Wally is a series regular and co-executive producer on the hit Amazon series OVERCOMPENSATING, created by Benito Skinner, which was just renewed for its second season.
She earned a 2026 Independent Spirit Award nomination for ‘Best Breakthrough Performance’ for her acting debut starring as ‘Carmen,’ a high school outsider on a mission to fit in at all costs in college.

She was a producer on the Netflix series, NEON, created by Shea Serrano and a co-producer on the Apple TV series,SHRINKING, with Jason Segel, Brett Goldstein, and Bill Lawrence. She has written on ENGLISH TEACHER (FX), WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS (S4 & S5, HULU/FX), BETTY (S2, HBO), and SPRUNG (Freevee). 

Wally was a Just For Laughs ‘NEW FACES’ for stand-up comedy and made her late-night debut on THE LATE SHOW WITH STEPHEN COLBERT (CBS). Wally performs regularly at clubs and venues across the country. Her comedy brings a unique perspective on the strange banalities of entering the adult world as well as growing up with a strong multi-cultural/Mexican-Syrian identity.

She is also, unfortunately, Gen-Z.
