She recently starred on the CBS show Broke. She played characters on the Emmy-nominated series Burning Love and ABC's Suburgatory, and she's also appeared on Modern Family, Key and Peele, Comedy Bang Bang, and Fox's Mulaney.

Now, you can catch this Rockford East High School graduate on a new cooking competition show on TBS.

Rat In The Kitchen Premiering March 31 on TBS

Rat in the Kitchen is not your traditional cooking competition show. In this competition, six chefs work together to try to impress world-renowned celebrity chef Ludo Lefebvre, except that one of them is a saboteur trying to secretly destroy the team's dishes. Throughout the competition, the chefs will have chances to earn big money for performing different tasks, including trying to expose 'the rat'.

Natasha joined 97ZOK's Steve Shannon Show and hilariously explained the culinary chaos that is Rat In The Kitchen, and what role she plays in all the shenanigans.
