Shaina has directed content for RIOT, Shatterbox, IFC’s Comedy Crib and in 2016, Refinery29 commissioned Shaina to create a 6-part comedy series called Expecting that exceeded 1.5 million views in its first week. You might have heard her high-pitched voice on This American Life, WFMU’s The Goddamn Dave Hill Show, RISK, the CBC’s Wiretap or NPR’s All Things Considered, where she played Santa’s elfin secretary two years in a row. Most recently, she was the senior producer of the hit immigration podcast Maeve in America. She is currently developing a series with comedian Maeve Higgins on immigration and another series with Lucy Wainwright Roche that combines music with improvised comedy and social commentary.
