About My Background and Experience

The Journey That Shaped Me
I’m originally from Russia, and ever since I was a kid, I’ve had a love for drawing and crafting. This passion led me to pursue graphic and web design in high school, and I was lucky enough to start working as a designer at companies back in Russia. When I was in my early 20s, I moved to the United States to be with my family. I first settled in Reno, where I went to College to earn my degree in graphic and web design.
Most of my career has been in Reno, where I worked at smaller companies and print shops before moving to marketing agencies. I got the chance to build websites and design for many different clients, and I spent seven incredible years working at a large marketing agency, helping casino clients from Reno all the way to Las Vegas, Nevada.
Moving to the USA was a big change, but I’ve come to truly love this country and the wonderful people I’ve met along the way. I’m grateful for the lifelong friendships I’ve made, and I feel so at home here. Not too long ago, I moved to Idaho with my family, and I’m excited to continue growing both personally and professionally in this beautiful state.
