She didn't find true love until she reluctantly agreed to take improv courses at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre in Los Angeles at the suggestion of her agency.

Nwodim's journey into uncharted territory through improv has produced several pinch-me moments, such as her 2018 addition to the Saturday Night Live cast, friendship-building with Leslie Jones, performing the cha-cha slide with John Mulaney, or even praise from the iconic Dionne Warwick for her accurate impersonation of the singer.

At the Montreal-based Just for Laughs festival in 2016, Nwodim was referred to as one of the New Faces. Television shows, including True Crime: The Menendez Murders, Law & Order, 2 Broke Girls, and Living Biblically, all have supporting cast members. She has additionally made several guest appearances on the Comedy Bang! Bang podcast.

In a series of Funny or Die films, the comedian impersonated the legendary poet Maya Angelou in 2017, roasting public figures and businesses for making headlines for the wrong reasons. Ivanka Trump, Tyrese Gibson, Scott Baio, and SheaMoisture were among her targets.
