Activist, Christian, Global soul, Student, World traveler

Currently I'm in my fifth year at the Southern Federal University completing the Specialist Degree in English Philology. My main academic interest is English Literature. Besides, I'm really into translating and enterpreting from English into Russian. Also, I work part-time as a department assistant helping with paper staff. Apart from my studies, most part of my time is devoted to volunteering. The most groundbreaking experience of this year was volunteering for the Olympic and Paralympic Games in Sochi. I worked at the International Office, where I was responsible for helping to plan schedules for incoming executive internationals from International Olympic and Paralympic Committee escorting delegations and translating for them. My previous volunteering experience also includes participation in international project in Vien where young people from all over the world helped National Memorial Service with taking care of memorials in honor of the heroes of WWII. However, the first and most meaningful volunteer experience I had in Germany in summer 2011 was when I took part in the "International Youth Meeting in Dachau".
