জীবনী
Justine Stafford is a comic, performer, content creator, and actress. Born January 2, 1994 in the Republic of Ireland, Justine grew up near the small village of Nobber.
After filming and editing her school's submission to Fi's Film project encouraging primary schools to create short films (which won the national competition), Stafford's teacher encouraged her to submit her own entry to Fresh International Film Festival. She did, and took third place in 2008 and 2010, in addition to winning the audience award at the regional heat in 2009. Stafford's 2010 entry "Away in a Home", a short comedy film about people breaking out of an old folks home, was also submitted by Fresh to film festivals in Greece, Germany, and South Korea.
Justine attended Dublin Institute of Technology and finished with a Bachelor's Degree in Film and Broadcasting in 2015 before accepting a position with Maximum Media Group, primarily working with social media publisher JOE. Justine not only created memes and other content for JOE on platforms like Instagram and Twitter but also took part in their weekly online broadcast "The Joe Show", the first and only online show broadcast in Ireland, as a script writer, editor, and performing in sketches. Among the on camera appearances Justine made during her time with JOE was her appearances on The Big Reviewski, a movie related segment, and conducting interviews with the likes of Irish comedian and actor Tommy Tiernan.
Justine made her first stand up comedy appearance in 2018 at Cherry Comedy at Whelan's, leading to her participation in the Stand Up Be Funny competition and an appearance on "The Ray D'arcy Show" where she finished in second place. Recognized as a rising star in Irish entertainment, Justine was invited to participate on YouTube's "The Try Channel", joining other Irish personalities as they tried various food, drinks, games, and other activities not normally available in Ireland.
With a broadening audience thanks to YouTube, Justine made the bold move of leaving JOE to concentrate on her comedy and acting career. She has appeared in the independent film "Poster Boy's" as well as television specials such as "Callan Kicks the Years" and the RTE2 series "No Worries if Not!" along with Emma Doran, Michael Fry, Sean Burke, and Killian Sundermann.
