About
👋 I’m Polina. I love making an impact on the world — whether it’s through my work in tech or by supporting charities that make a difference. I’ve worked in marketing for some of the biggest brands in the world, and now I’m focusing on using my skills to help charities make a real difference. Every day, I see how powerful marketing can be in connecting people with causes they care about, and I’m passionate about using that power for good.

How do you do collaborations with other creators?
I'm in the process of doing a lot of collaborations with other creators (writers, podcasters) and want to know how other people are doing it. How do you manage the workflow, how to do choose with whom to collaborate or not (if you get incoming request), how do you manage expectations? Would love to hear your stories!
Do you prefer to learn on your own or through a more formal education?
There's something to be said for taking the time to learn on your own. When you're responsible for your own learning, you have to be more disciplined and put in more effort. But that also means you have more control over your learning experience and can tailor it to your needs and preferences. You can take your time, go at your own pace, and practice until you get things right. That said, I also appreciate the value of online education. With so many online courses and programs available, it's getting easier and easier to find one that fits your needs and interests. And with the flexibility of online learning, you can often work at your own pace and fit your studies into your busy schedule. Plus, there's a wealth of information available online, from lectures and course materials to forums and discussion boards where you can connect with other students. So what's the best way for me to learn? I think it depends on what works best for me and on what I'm trying to learn. If I want more control over my learning experience or if I need more time to practice, then self-learning is the way to go. But if I'm looking for a more structured learning environment or if I want access to a wider range of resources, then online education is the better option.
What skills do you think you would bring to a social impact organisation?
I use my marketing skills to help the charity I m working in to advocate the problem. I work to create marketing collateral that tells the story of the charity and the problem they re trying to solve. I also use my skills to help them spread their message through social media and other online channels. I think it s important for people in tech to use their skills for good and help charities and social causes. What are the skills that you could use for charity or social impact? How could you put them to use?
