Also, she had a part in the Second City musical “Jewsical: The Musical”, the cast of which was assembled from only Jewish people, important as it was a satirical look at Jewish beliefs.
Her screen debut came in 2009 in the comedy “Off the Cuff”, and soon enough was brought onto the set of “SNL”, firstly as a featured player, but later she was promoted to the regular cast. Since 2012 she has appeared in 149 episodes of the show, which significantly increased her net worth, and her popularity as well.

Most recently Vanessa featured in the films “Carrie Pilby” (2016), and “Office Christmas Party” (2016), which have also improved her wealth.
Regarding her personal life, little is known about her relationships since she tends to keep her love life as secretive as she can.
