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.
