About me
IT Way
Life has changed when Russia openly launched a full-scale war against Ukraine, killing our people and occupying our land. The invasion has changed lives of millions of people, I am not an exception. Before the war I had a successful career in Communications — 15 years of professional experience as a PR pro in different spheres, both on the agency side and in-house. The war has pulled me to Germany as a refugee, and I started mastering new knowledges. First, I studied coding with amazing SheCodes Foundation, than UX/UI design. I did enjoyed it — as a great process of creation, searching for solutions, analysis, and seeing tangible results of your work.

On the other hand, I also realized that my professional background in Communications is a strong point and a competitive advantage. I have had several meetings with coaches and mentors who are top IT professionals, and they highly recommended that I leverage this advantage. They advised me to utilize my soft and hard skills to become a proficient Product Manager, bridging the gap between IT products on one hand and their users, businesses, and teams on the other. This led me to pursue Product and Project Management. I now hold a Master's Degree in Digital Product from Nuclio Digital Schooland have obtained 18 PDUs in IT Project Management. I am continuing to actively develop myself in this field.
