Exploring about Robby Hoffman’s career and personal life

According to a report in Hey Alma, Robby Hoffman is a former Hasidic Jew who grew up in Montreal, Canada. She has 10 siblings with her being the seventh child to her single mother.

Hoffman graduated from the McGill University in Canada. She studied accounting and communications and enrolled in a graduate program to become a CPA but dropped out soon because of her passion for comedy. She eventually moved to New York to pursue her career.

She won a Daytime Emmy Award in 2019 for her writing work on the PBS children's show Odd Squad, as stated in Forbes magazine. This was her first TV writing job, according to Hey Alma.

In 2020, she was reportedly named as one of Vulture's Top Comedians to Watch. As per Hoffman’s IMDb profile, she is known for The Chris Gethard Show (TruTV), Workin' Moms (Netflix), Baroness Von Sketch Show (IFC), and her one-hour Just for Laughs comedy special, "I'm Nervous."

“I’m a nomad,” Hoffman told Forbes magazine. “I feel most at home when the lights are on me and I’m dancing around on stage.”

“The first time I see the audience is when I step out on stage. In those ten seconds I have read so much information,” Hoffman added. “Those prongs about where I’m going to take this set are activated. Even if I’m doing the same material I’ll know to go slower, faster, I’ll know to omit things or add things, to make it dirtier or keep it cleaner.”

She went public with her relationship with Gabby Windey in August 2023. She shared a series of Instagram pictures with her girlfriend.

According to a report in Distractify, the couple first met at a bar in 2023. Speaking about her meeting, she said during an episode of the Too Far podcast,

"This [l*sbian], like me, started to look at me, and I thought [she would] maybe hit on me, like another 'butch-y type [person].' I'm not gay like that, but she was there with Gabby.”

In May 2024, the couple celebrated their first anniversary, and has been going strong since then.
