Nishy XL (Acsell) (Peacock TV NBC) is an Indian/Pakistani talent raised in LA. She tours all over the US and she's been featured in the LA Times. She was also an improviser and former sketch writer for the Second City Hollywood, and as an SC house cast member, she wrote and performed monthly comedic sketch revues.

In 2020, she placed in the top 10 in the National Comedy Open, was in the finals in the US Comedy Contest by Audience favorite vote, and went home with the "Spirit of Comedy" Medal at the 2021 Gutty's Indiana Clean Comedy Challenge. Born in a war zone, she moved to LA at a young age, worked in corporate America, got hives from the cubicle, went straight to the comedy club, and found her calling on the stage. Nishy produces shows all over LA, including the Hollywood Improv, and promotes underrepresented voices in stand-up. Whether it's cultural, edgy, dark, or clean, she can take her material anywhere with clever writing and quick wit. Catch her streaming and at all the major LA comedy clubs.
