My career began with winning “Miss Ukraine Tourism Queen International,” a milestone that led to my participation in Alan Badoev’s reality show “10 Bazhan.” This show became popular among Ukrainian youth and set the stage for my journey to stardom. Following that, I played the lead female role in the musical “Z.Dance” with Max Barskih, where I also showcased my vocal talent.
