After graduating from the University of Michigan, Pomarolli moved to Hollywood and pursued an acting career for several years. However, according to her, the roles she was being offered were challenging to her as a person of faith so she branched into stand up comedy. She attended Stella Adler Conservatory in New York and the British American Drama Academy in London.

Pomarolli was featured in the documentary Hollywood on Fire, where she talked about the condition of faith in the entertainment industry.[In 2013, Pomarolli hosted the California Women’s Conference. She has a recurring role on Nick Mom Night Out.
So basically, as I say on this episode, she’s “pretty much doing the same stuff as the rest of us.”
Kerri and her thirteen year old daughter, Lucy, host a podcast entitled, This Is Not a Good Idea which you can hear on all the podcast platforms.
Kerri Pomarolli “crushes clean comedy,” but mostly–she’s just an awesome mom who is dealing with humanity and loving and trusting Jesus in the process. I LOVE THIS WOMAN! Don’t miss this episode, you guys! Seriously:)
