What I'm about

Biography and fun facts

In my work, I try to live by my values — being strong and kind — in ways that are meaningful for people and beneficial to the businesses that serve them.

For years, I’ve been creating experiences through space, education, and collaboration. While studying, I organised educational events for students to meet peers from across Europe and built small projects together. With friends, we hosted a 10-day architecture workshop in a small Belarusian village. Also, I'm Peter Zumthor's fangirl, and one day I will design and build a home for my family.

In the beginning of my master's program, I discovered UX design and liked it. Eventually, I finished my studies, where, as a tutor for a group of students, I explored with the group, how human-centered methods could help us design a park.

English is neither my first nor second language, so I may still make mistakes. Thanks for understanding.

Colophon

Right now, I'm developing this site using plain HTML and CSS. It's constantly changing until I get it to a relatively acceptable form, but the overall view and structure are stable. Kind of a Theseus ship.

The code is stored in a public GitHub repository. I'm using a simple open-source static site generator Eleventy with help of tutorials and ChatGPT to hunt the bugs. Deployment is handled by Vercel.

For typography I chose Instrument Sans and Source Serif 4, available on Google Fonts.
