I grew up in Kharkiv, Ukraine. Moving abroad alone at fifteen pushed me to adapt quickly and made me want to build a future in something creative.

​

When I found 3D and animation, it immediately made sense to me. I loved the mix of problem-solving and imagination. Studying at the School of Visual Arts helped me explore modeling, lighting, lookdev, and it taught me how every small choice shapes the final story.

​

Working in the industry and as a studio runner also made me appreciate the production side. I realized how much organization, clarity, and communication support artists, and I naturally gravitated toward schedules, organizing, and pipeline work.

​

Now, as an aspiring producer, I’m interested in the place where art and structure meet. I’m still learning, but I care about creating calm, clear workflows that help creative teams do their best work.
