She was student council president in high school and participated in productions with the Wilmington Drama League. In 2004, during her second year of college, Plaza suffered a stroke that caused temporary paralysis and expressive aphasia. She has now fully recovered.

    Plaza performed on March 12, 2010, at “A Night of 140 Tweets: A Celebrity Tweetathon for Haiti”, produced by Rob Huebel, Paul Scheer, Ben Stiller, and Mike Rosenstein, at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre in Los Angeles. In 2011, Plaza appeared on Portlandia. Also in 2011, she appeared as a guest judge during a roast segment on The Next Food Network Star. Plaza appeared in Episode 199 of the WTF with Marc Maron podcast.

    She also had a recurring role as “the Princess” in the comedic sci-fi web series Troopers on CollegeHumor. She was featured in Father John Misty’s music video for the song “Hollywood Forever Cemetery Sings” from the album Fear Fun in 2012 and in 2014 she was in Cassorla’s “Bona Fide” video where she also made her saxophone-playing debut.

    Plaza earned her first starring role in a major film in 2012, alongside Mark Duplass, in the comedy, Safety Not Guaranteed. She played Darius, a jaded intern who answers a curious want ad “seeking a companion for a time-traveling adventure”. Plaza’s performance in the film was critically acclaimed and Gary Thompson of The Philadelphia Inquirer questioned whether this role was out of her usual “pretty slacker” range but found her performance “compelling”.

    At the 2014 Sundance Film Festival in January 2014, her film, Life After Beth, which was written and directed by her boyfriend Jeff Baena, premiered. Lifetime Network announced on September 17, 2014, that Plaza would do the speaking voice of Grumpy Cat in their upcoming original movie Grumpy Cat’s Worst Christmas Ever. Plaza starred in Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates alongside Zac Efron, Anna Kendrick and Adam DeVine. On July 8, 2016, the film was released.

    Her role as the rebellious Tatiana earned her critical praise. In 2016, she was a guest star on HarmonQuest, as a gnome named “Hawaiian Coffee”. She portrayed Aaron Burr in the “Hamilton” episode of Drunk History in 2016. It was announced in 2017 that Plaza would star in indie comedy An Evening With Beverly Luff Linn. She first played the role of Cat Adams in Season 11 of the CBS television show Criminal Minds. Plaza returned to the role in Season 12. Plaza has been starring in the FX series Legion since 2017.
