Hello!
I’m a 2D Animator from Kharkiv, Ukraine, currently located in Lviv.
Having a Master’s degree in Computer Science and after years of working for an IT company, I decided to go after my childhood dream and focus on the profession of an artist.

I tried myself in different artistic areas such as character design, illustration, comic art before I committed myself to my true passion – animation.
