Writer, Journalist
I am a journalist specializing in social issues and geopolitical dynamics, covering topics such as the war in Ukraine, antisemitism, imperialism, and the complexities of the Middle East—including the war in Gaza and the plight of Israeli hostages. My work has been featured in leading publications such as Novaya Gazeta Europe, The Media Line and The Jerusalem Post, and I have served as the editor and host of the National Geographic Russia podcast. In addition to geopolitical reporting, I have covered technology and AI, exploring their impact on society, healthcare, and global security. I also create impactful content for non-profits and educational initiatives, including a weekly column on mental health.
Medical Psychologist and Master of Psychology
My research has focused on eating disorders, family dynamics, and parenting stress, with practical experience in hospitals working with both children and adults. I have also conducted scientific studies on orphanhood in Russia and have a background in organizational psychology. Social issues are at the core of my work, and I have gained experience and education across the UK, Austria, Belarus, Russia, and Israel.
