About the teacher:
Khadijah Cooper grew up in the suburbs of Minneapolis as an only child. Working as the Education Director of a local non-profit focusing on adolescent sexual health, her confidence in public speaking coupled with her quick wit gave her the fuel she needed to burst onto the comedy scene in February 2018; making her name known. In March 2019 Khadijah was in the top 5 for the Best comedian for the City Pages Best of the Twin Cities. In 2021 Khadijah was named one of 5 comedians to watch! In 2023 Khadijah was accepted into Limestone Comedy Festival, Big Pine Comedy Festival, 10k Laughs ComedyFestival, & B4U Die Comedy Festival, and Laugh After Dark Comedy Festival! Her point of view in her stand up as a mother, an Education Director and someone that has confidence and comfort in her skin makes her irresistible to laugh with and relate to!
