I can’t express all the emotions that are overwhelming me right now. It’s excitement, joy, and a little fear — because the unknown lies ahead. But the strongest is gratitude. Gratitude to everyone who supported me, who believed in me when I doubted myself. And gratitude to myself — for not giving up, for continuing to dream and work, despite all the obstacles.

Journalism for me is not just a profession. It’s a way to be honest, sensitive to the world, to tell important stories, to speak out loud about what matters. And now I have a chance to do it on an international level. This is not just the beginning of a career — it’s the fulfillment of a dream.

I know for sure that it won’t be easy. But I’m ready. Because the biggest changes begin with determination. And now I’m more determined than ever.

Thank you, Ukraine. You are my home and my roots. And I take you with me — in my heart, in my words, in every report I ever write.
And now — forward. Time to act.
