I'm a professional musician who loves what I do. I'm educated and well read. I truly have a passion for being out in nature and for hiking. I also love animals and have many whom I have rescued. My family history comes from both Russia as well as the Ukraine and something inside of me has been tugging at my heart for years to connect more with those that live there.

All I ask is that you live your life moving forward like music does...never looking back. To live in the moment and to take chances in the one life we get to live while here on earth.
