I’m a writer, speaker and food educator. I’m enthralled by family history, psychology and the power food has to tell stories and preserve memories.

​

In 2022 I left Russia for Istanbul and then Sydney. I’ve been reconciling the experience of migration by studying counselling and writing a memoir about my experience and my family history (I’ve even won The Wingate Unpublished Manuscript Award for it).

​

I speak and write about studying family history, immigration & resilience. I do demos and workshops on food ways for a kitchen steeped in sustainability, memories and connection.

​

I'd love to speak at your event.
