About me.

My storytelling journey began during my years of travelling and volunteering. Those experiences opened my eyes to the best and worst of humanity. I remember recently standing in a displacement shelter in Dnipro. Families were arriving from frontline villages with nothing but the clothes on their backs. They were scared, exhausted, and yet, in the middle of that chaos, I saw love and acceptance. These moments stay with me—the harshness of conflict on one side and the quiet kindness that keeps people going on the other.

That contrast reinforced how powerful stories can be. They’re more than just words or images - they connect us, move us, and sometimes even change the way we see the world. I have always known I wanted to focus on sharing stories that matter, stories that honour the strength of people. It’s a responsibility I don’t take lightly.

For me, storytelling is about creating connections. It’s about showing people something they might never experience otherwise and helping them feel it. A good story doesn’t just break down walls; it makes people care.

Whether I’m documenting life in a conflict zone, working with vulnerable communities, or capturing a deeper, longer narrative, I put everything I have into it. The goal isn’t just to share what’s happening - it’s to find the threads that connect us all and use them to make a difference, no matter how small.
