What are your interests and what do you enjoy doing the most?

Playing with my dog, spending time with my family, working as a model, learning new languages, visiting new countries, meeting new people, playing sports, dancing, reading, and spending time with children.

What is your career ambition?

My goal is to be successful in life. Whatever I choose to do, I want to do it well.



I was raised in a small village, and when I was 10 my family moved to KHARKOV (the 2nd largest city in Ukraine). My childhood was very happy; I was surrounded by the love and care of my family. I would never want to change anything that happened to me from that time. I was a very happy child.

What do you want the judges to know about you?

I want the judges to know that I've come so far in this contest and in my life because of the great support of my family. We had a very rough life in Ukraine.



After the country became independent, the political situation became critical and people's lives became very hard. My father's business failed and my mom was a doctor earning $100 USD a month. My 70-year-old grandma was the main financial support in my family before I started making some money modeling in Asia.



My parents sacrificed everything to give me and my sister a good education and a chance to be successful in this world. Maybe I was born in the wrong time for my country, but I was and am definitely in the right family.
