My name is Anastasiia. I am from St. Petersburg, Russia.

Since I was 11 years old I was in the theater. At first it was just my hobby (I studied in the theater class (Z.Y.Korogodskiy's school) and then it became my profession.

At the age of 21, I graduated from the St. Petersburg State Academy of Theatrical Arts with a bachelor's degree in performing arts, major in acting, faculty of puppetry arts.

Some time later I started working in several professional theaters in my city, both dramatic and puppet theaters. Thanks to one of them, the "Hand Made Theatre" I had the opportunity to travel to Japan, China and Singapore.

I have participated in several international workshops and collaborated with theater directors from Italy (Alessandra Giuntini), Germany (Wolfgang Nagele), USA and Romania (Andrey Sherban).
