Communication Arts names me as
one of the fifteen most promising young creatives in the world.

Recognized for "a distinctive approach to creative problem solving and producing work at a professional level," I have been named as one of the fifteen most promising visual communications students in the world and given a full page in this year’s annual to show my work and talk about what drives me — here is what I had to share.

The Inteview

Cultural Influences

I was born into a family of doctors and raised in Siberia. After graduating from high school, I moved to Toronto to study advertising—throughout my journey, I’ve been inspired by hardworking and compassionate people.

Artistic Influences

I’m interested in both art and science. Hence, I admire all kinds of people: Frédéric Chopin for his authenticity, Leo Tolstoy for his depth of thought, and Jackson Pollock for his eloquence. I’m fascinated by technology and find peace in nature.

Dream Job

On a talented, passionate team. I believe the right people make the work great, and I want to work with the best.

People in Hawaii wear a different kind of masks. By bringing the daunting situation we're all in during COVID and its symbol, a face mask, into a positive light, this campaign breaks the uncertainty of a pandemic into an actionable solution – flying to Hawaii – and encourages people to smile again.
