MHAYA POLACCO IS AN AWARD-WINNING COMEDY WRITER.

She exercises her passion for storytelling through comedy, writing, and filmmaking. Drawing inspiration for her stories and punchlines through relatability, relationships, and observations, she provides commentary on the awkwardness that is being alive. Her hyper-specific obsessions highlight things that really, no one should be thinking about. Her writing has been featured in notable publications like Sweety High, Flexx Magazine, Medicinal Media, and more. In addition, her comedy sketches and award-winning scripts have been recognized at over 30 film festivals—a testament to her dedication to the world of entertainment, filmmaking, and an incessant desire to make people laugh. Mhaya would describe her comedy as “girl sleepover vibes, but the kind where you end up calling your mom at 2 a.m. to pick you up because you’re scaredā€ (whatever that means). She is currently in pre-production of a short comedy film. You can also catch her doing stand-up at clubs all over Los Angeles.
