Bridget Oberlin

Bridget’s journey into comedy’s kind of wild, honestly. She kicked things off at The Groundlings—if you don’t know, that’s basically a breeding ground for some of the funniest folks out there. After sharpening her improv chops, she hit the road with a stand-up act. We’re talking late nights, weird venues, lots of coffee, and—let’s be real—probably some truly bizarre hecklers. But she held her own. Didn’t just stick to gritty comedy clubs either. You might’ve actually seen her face way more times than you realize, thanks to a string of national commercials. The Zicam girl? Yep, that’s her. She’s got this knack for popping up right when you’re not expecting it, with that sly grin that makes you actually pay attention to the ad. But comedy wasn’t always the plan. She’s got a degree in Journalism from Syracuse—so, yeah, she can write and report with the best of them. Before she ever got a laugh on stage, she was out there on the airwaves in Syracuse, NY, giving people their morning news and traffic updates. Imagine groggy commuters depending on her to find out if they’d be late to work. Not bad, right? Somewhere along the way, she met Dave Wilson—director and partner-in-crime. They got hitched, and now they’re raising their son, Declan. It’s a life that’s all over the map: improv one day, commercial shoots the next, juggling scripts, school runs, and who knows what else. It’s a lot, but she makes it look easy.
