A QISSAA with Ishika: Romen Borsellino

Welcome to the 29th episode of A QISSAA with Ishika! My guest today is comedy writer and performer Romen Borsellino!

A member of the Writers Guild of America, Romen has been a writer for Comedy Central’s The Daily Show during Kal Penn’s weeks as guest host. Before that, he was a staff writer for Season 2 of NBC’s A Little Late with Lilly Singh as well as the sole writer for CTV’s Battle of the Generations, hosted by Lilly Singh. In 2020, Romen co-created and executive produced Freeform’s comedic election series Kal Penn Approves This Message. Romen has also written comedy for President Biden’s 2023 White House Correspondent’s Dinner remarks, the 2023 Pen America Literary Awards, the 2021 WGA Awards, and Adam McKay and Will Ferrell’s This Giant Beast That Is The Global Economy on Amazon Prime. You may have seen him as White House Staffer from the Motown Night episode of Fox's I Can See Your Voice Season 3. Before writing comedy, Romen served as a political appointee in the Obama Administration. He has also worked on a number of high-profile political campaigns in his home state of Iowa, including President Obama’s historic 2008 Iowa caucus race and 2012 re-election. Romen is a graduate of Amherst College.
