About Courtney Kiolbassa

 

Hi, I’m Courtney!

I’m a writer, editor, actor, filmmaker, and communications professional based in NYC.

What began as a secret love of poetry on YouTube became a life built around stories that bring people together. In 2018, I received a BA in English (Creative Writing) and a minor in business from Texas A&M University. Since then, I’ve:

  • Taught ESL for refugees in San Antonio

  • Written countless brand manifestos, which have made 10+ clients happy-cry

  • Created everything from radio ads to billboards to holiday cards for Humana

  • Performed in improv comedy shows, a full-length play, and an adult ballet recital

  • Helped dozens of students apply for college confidently

  • Successfully reversed my early-onset carpal tunnel

Currently, I’m working at NYU Steinhardt. I’m reading Martyr! by Kaveh Akbar. I’m listening to Scriptnotes, If Books Could Kill, and Las Culturistas. I’m watching Severance, Game of Thrones, and all of the things my husband makes.
