Alex was born in and adopted from Beirut, Lebanon and raised in Silver Spring, MD. Her comedy is a mix of dry storytelling and radical candor about the hard truths of being adopted while also speaking her mind of everyday observations we encounter. She performs regularly and hosts at shows around the DMV including at Room 808, Hotbed Comedy Club, and The DC Comedy Loft, amongst many other locally produced shows. She has hosted shows for Dan Donahue and Lea’h Sampson at the DC Comedy Loft and for Jourdain Fisher at The Port Comedy Club in Baltimore as well as guest appearances for comics such as Ali Sultan, Sabeen Sadiq, Amir K and Martin Amini. Alex runs her own local show, called Could Be Coachella, at Capo Deli Speakeasy in DC. Recently, Alex was a part of Badar Tareen’s ‘Why Are You Brown?’ show at The Capital Fringe Festival in DC in July 2024, which was featured in The Washington Post, as well as part of the traveling show ‘Hilarious Habibi’s’ which regularly takes place at the Hollywood Improv featuring Middle Eastern comics in June 2024
