Was born and raised in the in Ukraine Khmelnytsky region, in a family where father was not only a talented poet, journalist and publicist, infinitely in love with the homeland, but also an uncompromising fighter against the Soviet system and a defender of independence. Therefore, it is not surprising that the “virus” of Ukrainianness and freedom was picked up by his children. The unbreakable Ukrainian genetic code of the nation has entered me from my diapers and finally, what I am proud of.
It is logical that the choice of future profession in the creative family of a journalist and a teacher was natural. “I’ll follow in my father’s footsteps,” I decided. Philology, journalism, the science of the Word… It’s so interesting After graduating from university returned to her hometown to work in the newspaper. Mastered the art of writing, wrote articles about ordinary people, covered the events of the city, conducted educational and cultural sections, and in solitude, quiet evenings, listened to the chirping of grasshoppers and dreamed of something)))) And dreams, as you know, tend to come true !!! !!
Moving to the capital-- Kyiv !!! At first it was not easy, because it was a difficult time of perestroika, a time of deep economic crisis that overshadowed the plans of many. It was a period when creativity became unprofitable, and the so-called intelligentsia was forced to learn new professions to adapt to unexpected realities. Of course, such a transformation did not pass me by. The forced transition from the creative to the commercial field was not easy. I had to learn a new craft and quickly catch the math of numbers and market relations “on the fly” through painful mistakes, searches and trials.
Yes … There was everything in my life-- success and failure, black and white, sweet and bitter, happy and sad… But in my heart there is always hope, that invisible optimistic ray that inspires hope for the better. Of course, sometimes you have to shake your values. No matter how hard you try, there are inviolable ones - self-respect, self-sufficiency, justice, honesty, and when they are, I do not substitute another cheek. I try to stick to this.
So we got acquainted)))
