Born in Tel Aviv, Israel, Modi emigrated with his family to the United States at the age of seven and was raised on Long Island. After graduating from Boston University, he worked as an investment banker until his first open-mic night made him realize that stand-up was his true calling.

Equipped with a sharp wit and a knack for reading an audience, Modi has gone on to become a successful fixture in New York’s vibrant comedy scene, often doing bits that incorporate his heritage. He is a hit with diverse Jewish audiences as well as fans of all backgrounds and beliefs.

Modi will be donating a portion of proceeds to charities and organizations dedicated to helping the recovery efforts in Israel.
