I graduated from Moscow Textile Academy at the Department of Applied Arts (1983-1988). We were studying how to work with form, to stylize and to design ornamentation, to use coloristics as much as possible.

Then I was working in Moscow Fashion center where I was engaged in the selection and creation of collections for the Fashion Theatre and exhibition sales. During this period I traveled a lot for regional fashion houses where I selected the work of young designers for shows at the Moscow Fashion Center. I visited the Baltic countries, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Ukraine and Belarus. In addition, my duties included preparing and providing lectures on design for sales consultants and other staff.

I had an extensive experience with decorative fabrics. For a long time I was attending international exhibitions in Frankfurt where I advised a Moscow firm on the purchase of fabrics. For the last 10 years I have been designing and decorating interiors in tandem with an architect.

Now, I am creating my art project «Birds. Characters» where I try to capture different emotions and traits of human character within the frames of a decorative image of birds.

In 2019, the Artifact Gallery in Moscow hosted my personal exhibition where a series of 100 birds was combined with the poem "The Appearance of a Hero" by the Russian conceptualist poet Lev Rubinstein.
