Engineer turned comedienne, Amy Barnes, started her stand-up career in Seattle, appearing at comedy clubs while working days in the aerospace industry. When faced with a choice between the two career paths, in a striking blow to the Girls In STEM Movement, she chose comedy. In a move to Los Angeles she began working as a comedy writer. Contributing material to the likes of Nancy Travis, Bonnie Hunt, Jack Black and Morgan Freeman. She appeared on Comedy Central and the National Lampoon Network. Amy is now a nationally touring act with over 60 dates a year and performs regularly to capacity crowds at performing arts centers, churches and conference events.
