Early Life and Her Beginning of Her Comedic Career
Miele discovered stand-up comedy when she was 13 and immediately fell in love with it. She began writing her jokes at 14 and aspired to become a comedian after watching specials by Wanda Sykes and Dave Chappelle. Following her father's advice, she reached out to established comedians in the industry.
Miele sent letters to over 40 comedians, and while most did not respond, Judd Apatow and George Carlin did. Apatow advised her to pursue a degree in writing, while Carlin called her to offer guidance on joke writing. She describes the experience as surreal, joking that she felt like she was losing her mind afterward.
Born and raised in New Jersey, Miele moved to New York City at the age of 16. The New Yorker magazine featured her at 18, and at 22, she appeared on Comedy Central's "Live at Gotham." She has since made appearances on "Gotham Comedy Live" and "Coming to the Stage," among others. Miele also tours with Armed Forces Entertainment and the "Nobodies of Comedy," and has been featured in Runner's World magazine.
One of Miele's jokes, "Feminist Sex Positions," went viral on YouTube and Upworthy.com. She co-produced and co-starred in 40 episodes of the online series "Apt C3" with fashion photographer Chris Vongsawat and comedian Carmen Lynch. Miele's debut comedy album, "Emotionally Exhausting," is now available on iTunes and Amazon.
