Linguist & AI trainer passionate about clear, expressive, and thoughtful communication across contexts.
Russian FederationWhat I'm looking for
I’m a linguist, educator, and programme designer with 17+ years of international experience in language, learning, and content development. My work bridges linguistic insight and technology — using AI-assisted tools to refine tone, clarity, and user experience across diverse projects.
At English School in Singapore, I led cross-functional collaboration on academic and marketing content, improving workflow efficiency and linguistic consistency. Previously, I founded and managed a language school, developing full learning ecosystems and training teams to maintain high instructional standards.
Curious by nature and precise by habit, I’m passionate about creating experiences where language feels alive — whether in education, digital communication, or human-AI interaction.
