Best childhood memories with my sister (right).

CHILDHOOD

Born and raised in the majestic mountains of Tienshan in Almaty (Kazakhstan) I lived far away from the big city in a tiny village solely created for the astrophysicists and their families working and living there.

Growing up with an astrophysicist as a father and a teacher, musician and artist as a mother I got a wide range of world views, scientific thinking, and creativity input that fueled my curiousity about the world and people.
Spending most of my time in nature with my best friend (my sister) I loved exploring every detail, 
every sound, every scent. The vast untouched landscapes of the nature surrounding me gave me a sense 
of freedom that I never would forget and always would strive for. 

In 1992, my family and I moved to Germany after the collapse of the Sowjet Union which had a big impact on me.

BECOMING AN ARTIST

In Kazakhstan my sister and I used to sing and dance to my mother playing her Accordion while she sang old russian love balads.

We used to sing in harmonies a lot which gave
me a sense of what good music sounds like.

My mom made sure we had a private piano 
teacher which was the first time I feel in love 
with the piano. It was an old black, slightly out 
of tune piano with heavy wooden keys. 


In my loneliness and attempt to escape from the pain of racism and discrimination I was going through at school 
in Germany, I started developing skills and my knowledge by reading the entire city library as I knew I was only 
going to survive this if I was smart and skilled.

In Germany, I waited years for a piano while I finished my music school degree in Accordion.
When I had the piano keys under my hands, I started practicing 5 hours a day, classics, modern, Jazz, 
and soon started to compose my first instrumental pieces at the age of 11.

I started writing lyrics and pop-soul songs that I would record on Cassettes.

I loved writing stories, and novels. Soon I won an award in writing and decided to publish my story to 
several magazines and newspapers and earn money for the first time at the age of 12.  

My second love is drawing, painting, sculpting, designing, and creating art from any material that I get my hands on. 
In early childhood, I developed my skill in thousands of hours of practice and found my own voice and style and 
became the artist that I was meant to be. 

In school, I joined the pro art course and learned even more about the endless possibilities to create 
and because my teacher loved everything I did I had the freedom to develop the most complex art pieces. 

My teacher and students soon started to battle who would bid more for my art to buy it. 
But I was too attached to my art and since my business mindset wasn´t even born yet - I never sold anything.

The first time I got in touch with branding was in that professional art course. I loved the idea of fusing the essence 
of a company into a little icon or logo that would speak volumes about this brand. 
I loved the idea of building a brand that would serve people on the highest levels.

I started to expand my knowledge and skills in design and branding in the coming years.

CAREER + PERSONAL LIFE


I decided to study musicology and linguistics. 
I studied Southeast Asian languages: Indonesian, Thai, Vietnamese, Tagalog.

During studies, I worked as an editor and translator in an international publishing company 
in Frankfurt/Main, Germany. The insights and editing skills I gained about how a magazine 
is created, edited, branded, printed, published, and advertised gave me new ideas and goals for 
my own businesses.

After I finished my Bachelor in Musicology and Linguistics - while I became a single mother of 2 - 
I decided to take a really BIG leap and become an entrepreneur.  

I started my first two online businesses as an independent singer-songwriter and artist mentor for singer-songwriters in 2018. 

When I noticed how my kids were not at all well treated in kindergarden and school
(discriminated against, bullied and abused) and how the school system was destryoing their
self-worth and creativity I decided to give up on the traditional schooling system once and for all.

I left Germany in 2021 to become a digital nomad during the Pandemic. I decided to homeschool my kids according to their gifts and passions and help them build their own businesses. 

In 2022, I added my third passion business and became a Personal Brand Consultant 
after coaching for over 20 years. I believe with branding I can help create something of value 
that lasts for centuries, that will help businesses even if I have left this world.

I decided to share my knowledge and expertise with coaches and consultants as I believe they 
are the future for a better world.

In the past 4 years of being a serial entrepreneur, I developed skills in graphic design, web and 
funnel design, personal style, color analysis, copywriting.

I am on a mission to help 8 billion people through female coaches.
I dedicate my life and deliver excellence to your feet.


Creating a beautiful world one coach at a time.
