I was born in Ternopil (UA). I began using a point-and-shoot camera at age ten and attended art school for four years. 
I was an active member of my city's children's photography studio and have participated in photography competitions and festivals since I was 14.
In 2018, I became an exchange student at the University of Lodz and later an intern at the international summer camp Creative Summer in Wroclaw. Since then, I have returned to Wroclaw every year for the camp, and in 2020, I moved here.
My interests revolve around identity, migration, trauma, and childhood. In March 2022, I documented the experiences of mothers and children fleeing the war across the Polish-Ukrainian border. In June 2022, I noted how the internally displaced people lived at my school in Ternopil. I also reported the devastation of the cities of Bucha and Irpin after their deliberation.
I'm working on a personal story about skin picking and a project that reflects my feelings and experiences visiting my home in Ukraine (Vertigo).
I completed the Canon Student Development Program in 2022, the Eddie Adams Workshop XXXVI. I'm a VII Academy alumni and finished the 3rd level in Arles, France, in October 2024.
I collaborated with The Wroclaw Institute of Culture and finished the residency program from the W/E Lab Foundation.
I am a portrait and event photographer who also works on personal projects.​​​​​​​
