Originally from Russia, I moved to New Zealand with a deep curiosity for the world and a passion for visual storytelling. I’m here to learn, work hard, and prove that I belong in this industry.
I've gained experience primarily as a Production Runner/Assistant, but on one TVC I took on multiple roles. When the production team didn’t need me, I helped the art department with sourcing and making props, as well as set dressing. I also scouted locations during pre-production and served as a driver for the director and agency. I’m especially drawn to the art department, where I can help build the worlds that films exist in. I don’t just do the job - I find the heartbeat of every project and make sure I’m in rhythm with it.
I’m excited to be part of any department and absorb everything I can from the incredible people around me 🙂
