She can currently be seen in her Second City Premium show Trump in Space (directed by Frank Caeti), as well as with Westside Comedy’s House Team, County Line and her two person improv team, Ms. Rogers.
She is very fancy and has a BA in Communication Studies and Theater from Hamline University and conservatory certificates from The London Academy of Theatre and The National Theater Institute. Gillian studied improv at Second City Chicago, Annoyance Theater, iO, and Comedy Sportz. She currently teaches improv at The Second City Hollywood, American Musical and Dramatic Academy, Westside Comedy Theater. She is a corporate trainer for Westside Corporate Creativity and Business Improv. She has performed with three Second City House Ensembles, Comedy Sportz Chicago and Minneapolis, Improv Acadia, the Del Tones @ iO West, and currently tours colleges performing comedy with Mission Improvable and performs at Nerdist with the musical improv ensemble Fairytales Against Humanity.
