Summary
I'm a versatile professional with extensive experience in modeling, beauty pageants, management, and show business. Recently relocated to the United States from Kazakhstan, where I excelled as a professional model, beauty pageant winner, and director of a modeling agency. I have acted in films and commercials, hosted a live television show and a music show on NBT (Independent Bishkek Television), and primarily worked in show business in Kyrgyzstan before moving with my family to Kazakhstan, where I continued in this field. During the coronavirus pandemic, I began working as a senior administrator at Nicole. Currently, I am thriving on Instagram with 5 million views and 20 thousand followers. I am fluent in Russian, Kazakh, and Italian, have studied French for nine years, and am proficient in conversational English. I am seeking new opportunities in Miami where I can leverage my diverse skill set and experience. I am highly adaptable and quick to learn, making me a valuable asset in any role.
