Education: Grigory Skovoroda Kharkov National Pedagogy University, major in Social Pedagogy. I chose my major answering the call of my heart – and it definitely was the right choice. My wish to help those in need did not fade away during the five years of my university studies, but, vice versa, was supported with the necessary knowledge to provide qualified and effective help. Employment with a charity was appealing to me as here you have a chance to help others not only by word, but also by deed.

My hobbies are active sports, sometimes even the extreme ones: rock climbing, archery, horse riding, hiking, and quests. As for my social hobbies, I like arranging celebrations and master classes in hospitals, attending institutions for children with special needs, and accompanying children in tourist and hiking tours.
