Stand-Up
-Riki has taken classes in comedy at The PIT and is currently working on writing and performing various stand up sets. With her work she aims to avoid the "other-ing" which comedy often falls to. Instead she focuses on relatable personal storytelling where if anyone is being laughed at, it's her. She's also toying with implementing technology in fresh and innovative ways.
