About Me

I'm seriosuly in sport shooting (pistol). When I'm not on set, I try to practice every day, at least a couple of hours. So shooting real guns somewhere in the forest in the US was really great expirience.

I work in Film Industry as a production manager or as a part of art department, depending on a project. And I love it! No matter how many hours we work, movies are pure magic. Reality shows are interesting to create too.

Several years ago I started to collect commemorative coins. I can't say that I have a lot, but I have some: euros, rubles, quaters (dollars), lats, pounds. If you also collect coins, I can probably help you.

Sometimes (like once in 5 years) I love to cross stitch. So I have some pictures made by myself. And speaking about pictures, I love to take photos and people say that I'm good at it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Insteed of one amazing thing I've done, I can tell you about one amazing creature I've found. I saw a homeless kitten, sitting hopelessly under the rain. He had a lot of health problems and he was completely eaten by flees. But after sleepless nights and monthes of medical treatment , he is 100% healthy now. He fetchs a ball like a dog and does a lot of other tricks. :))

I walked El Camino de Santiago. And it is wonderful path indeed.

I was abandoned on one small island. Rescued by an amazing Maxi Class Yacht (Atalanta II ' you can google pictures). I crossed Mediterranean with them and took part in Rolex Cup in Porto Cervo. That feels almost surreal.
