Personal Life

I was born in Berlin Mitte on New Year's Eve of 1994. My mother is from Moscow, Russia, and my father from Kutaisi, Georgia. I also have a little brother. Within our family, we speak Russian. I also speak German and learned English from 4th grade on.

After finishing 10th grade in 2012, I went to Palm Springs, California, for a high school year. I lived with wonderful host-parents. They showed me around and helped me improve my English. We are in close contact up to this date and visit each other as often as we can.

After my high school year, I completed Abitur in Berlin in 2014. Then I studied Electrical Engineering at the Technische Universität Berlin and received my Master's Degree in 2020. Now I am working at OMICRON Energy Solutions as a C++ Software Developer.

Throughout my life, I tried out many sports. During my younger years, I went swimming regularly. Between the age of 14 to 17 I was taught competitive dancing, Latin American dances and Ballroom Dances. During my High School Year in Palm Springs, I took up water polo and swimming again. Currently, I'm into running and road cycling.
