I’m a producer, director, writer, and script smith with a flair for storytelling. Trained at the Moscow Art Theatre School (MXAT) and polished through literary and poetry courses, I turn ideas into scripts, stories, and translations that actually sing. Over five years in publishing, film, and creative projects taught me to juggle contracts, narratives, and caffeine without dropping a beat. I translate English into Russian with style, tone, and a touch of soul, and craft content for video and multimedia that’s ready to hit play. Basically, if it needs story, drama, or a plot twist, I'm your person.
