Born and raised in Victoria, British Columbia, Kristeen Von Hagen began her career in stand-up comedy in 1995, after moving to nearby Vancouver. Tiring of the Vancouver lifestyle, she moved east to Toronto the following year, and started appearing in Canadian television shows like 'She's so Funny' (for Women's Television Network) and 'The Dish Show' (for the Comedy Network).

Von Hagen has since performed in two Just for Laughs (2002) festivals, the March of Dames festival, the Toronto Comedy Festival, and recently did time as a member of the comedy sketch troupe, Pale by Comparison. She's also continued in television, appearing on such shows as 'Singles Court', 'Zero Avenue', 'The Green Room', 'SketchCom' and Comedy Now! (1997), as well as 'Definitely not the Opera' and 'Brand New Waves' on Canadian radio.

Miss Von Hagen was also the recipient of the Canadian Comedy Club's Best Female Stand-Up award for 2002, and recently gained attention as the opening act for Puppetry of the Penis during the Canadian leg of their 2001 world tour.
