About me

I’m a Prague-based actress with experience in film, theatre, and international co-productions. Fluent in Ukrainian, English and Russian, with working knowledge of Czech.

Trained at Janáček Academy (Brno), Prague Film School, and Khodos School.
Bachelor’s degree in Theatre and Film Acting from Kyiv National University.

I gravitate toward roles that are sensual, intuitive, loving, and compassionate—these are the women I understand deeply and know how to embody with authenticity.
I also have a strong passion for comedy, enjoying its rhythm, timing, and emotional honesty.

Open to diverse roles in European cinema and beyond.
