Originally from Russia, I studied history and classics in my undergrad and Traditional Chinese Medicine in graduate school. While my day job is very serious, I’ve always loved writing and make sure to find time for it. In fact, this past March, I released a historical fantasy about Olga of Kyiv and her revenge: Vengeance In Flames.
