Natalia

I was born in a small western-Ukrainian town of Huszt situated in the midst of Carpathian Mountains on the border with Hungary and Romania. Ever since I got my first kit of paints and brushes when I was 6, I knew that I wanted to do something artistic with my life. Because of my father’s job, we had to travel a lot to countries such as Germany, France and Japan and other places all of which I don’t remember. However, all of them influenced me and the things I did later in life.

Because of unstable political situation in Ukraine, my parents decided to immigrate to Canada. With half of my schooling in Ukraine and half in Canada, I chose to study Chemistry at the University of Toronto.

However, that artistic streak that I had since childhood remained urging me to exploration of various forms of art: painting, filming, photography, acting. Modeling is just another art form for me and I like to collaborate with creative people on mine and theirs projects. Each photo shoot is an opportunity to be somebody else, somebody completely different and I enjoy that very much. I hope to pursue modeling as well as my other artistic endeavors.

In addition, I am working towards a Bachelor degree in Chemistry and possibly a Masters.
