Robin Hauser is an award-winning director of documentary films at Finish Line Features. Robin’s most recent documentary, $avvy, (2021) contemplates the historical, cultural and societal norms around women and money and explores why it’s critical for women to take an active role in managing personal finance. Her film, bias (2018), delves into unconscious bias and how it affects our lives socially and in the workplace. In 2015, CODE: Debugging the Gender Gap, premiered at Tribeca Film Festival, screened at The White House and caught the attention of the international tech industry and of policy makers around the world.
