Over the past year, Orly worked at the new media startup Gymnasium, where she developed, produced, and hosted the viral show Left On Read, racking up over 20 million views in just a few months. A 2024 graduate of Northwestern University’s Film/TV program, her viral graduation speech reached 2.6 million views on TikTok.
