Journalist.
Editor.
Pun fanatic.
Hi. I'm Polina — a Canadian writer who aims to amplify marginalised voices in my daily life. I do this through my journalism, copywriting, and editorial work.
Currently, I freelance as a journalist for publications such as the BBC, openDemocracy, and FRAME; I also work part-time at the EU's Environment Agency as a writer and editor. Besides, I'm the editor-in-chief of BEDTIME Magazine: a feminist print publication that focuses on eroticism, art, and queer culture.
Over the past 10 years, I've held leading editorial positions at media companies, innovation labs, and boutique design studios. And I've developed a portfolio of diverse copywriting clients who call me when they're looking for three things: an editorially-driven approach, sharp and quick writing, and an ethical backbone.
Fun facts: I co-run a feminist horror film club, and I'm really into revenge movies.
Based in Copenhagen, Denmark.
Open to journalism and copywriting commissions across Europe.
Fluent in English, Russian, and French. Getting there with Danish.
