Making People Laugh

Gajen Nad is a comedian. He started performing stand-up comedy back in 2012, while working as an IT consultant in a huge corporation. Interestingly enough, he actually really enjoyed his job. But something made him leave his job in 2018 to pursue comedy full time. He joins us on the show today to share why he left his corporate job, his definition of success and what it takes to make stand-up comedy a career.
