Journalist.
Editor.
Pun fanatic.
Hi. I'm Polina — a Canadian journalist who aims to amplify marginalised voices through my work. Currently, I'm the Technology Correspondent at The Fuller Project, a global newsroom aiming to catalyse change for women and gender minorities. Besides, my work appears in OCCRP, The Fuller Project, Foreign Policy, the BBC, Unbias the News and openDemocracy, among other publications. I also served as editor-in-chief of Bedtime Magazine, a feminist print publication covering eroticism, art and queer culture.
I'm an IJ4EU and Journalismfund grant recipient, and a Fellow of 2024's European Collaborative Journalism Programme.
Fun facts: I co-run a feminist horror film club, and I'm really into revenge movies.
Based in Copenhagen, Denmark.
Open to journalism commissions across Europe.
Fluent in English, Russian and French. Highly proficient in Danish.
