Polinna Maknev
A 2024 graduate of the University of Michigan, Polinna earned her BFA in Design with a deep focus in UX/UI design and research – a fancy way of saying she loves to figure out how people actually experience design. Polinna focuses on storytelling, building clear visual systems, and creating work that connects with the community it’s made for. Off the clock, she’s an avid crafter, puzzler, dinner party hostess, and outdoor explorer.
