I have more than 15 years of experience in the financial field. I'm а master of folk crafts and needlework as well. So my life is full of creative.

My achievements and mechanisms of self-realization:

The master of needlework;
A Collector of folk art traditions in the sewing, textiles, knitting;
The representative of the "patchwork" technology school of sewing, textiles, knitting with an ancient traditions.

The author and inspirer of the charity project "Shred of Hope."

"Shred of Hope" - the idea of ​​helping people affected by armed conflict, who are in difficult life situations. Shred - a small piece of tissue, unable to warm the person, but if you sew together dozens or even hundreds of patches, you'll get a warm blanket, what is so necessary for people in distress.

How I invented the project "Shred of Hope":

... These people suddenly appeared - a lonely old man in a shabby wheelchair and а woman exhausted by a hardships of the way. The war took away everything: the house; a quiet life; quiet secure old age; usual, over the years established order of things. They were refugees from Gorlovka, where was the heart of the Ukrainian conflict.
Some of my sympathetic neighbors invited them to live in their own country house; others brought clothes, food. Somebody suggested a portion of their small savings. The life of the elderly settled temporarily, but more and more people come to replace them. There were a victims of the conflict who have fled from the war. The village is increasingly sounded the theme of assistance to refugees.
-Daddy, why do we help these strangers? - Boy of ten, the son of my neighbors at the summer cottage, looked at his father questioningly.
