Halli Borgfjord

Halli Borgfjord grew up in Kalamazoo Michigan in a well-rounded family where he enjoyed the comfort of suburban life. Being the middle child Halli was naturally inclined to be in the spotlight and initially had childhood dreams of becoming an actor but as a young teenager Halli fell in love with the show “Friday Night Stand-Up” on Comedy Central and from that moment on knew someday he would be a comedian himself. All through grade school and into college Halli was the biggest student of stand-up. While his friends were buying the latest pop albums Halli was listening to George Carlin and going to see legends such as Jerry Seinfeld and Mitch Hedberg in concert.

Due to his relentless study and passion for comedy Halli was a natural on stage. Starting his comedy career in college Halli became an instant success with his quick wit and ability to point out the insanity of everyday life.

Halli now resides in Los Angeles CA and is a crowd favorite all across the country.
