Hi! My name is Veronika, but you can call me Nika, and I was born on March 28th.

I enjoy listening to music and taking photos. I love traveling, especially hiking and rafting, but my active leisure doesn't stop there. I'm also passionate about art — so much so that when I was 8 years old, I chose to visit the Louvre instead of Disneyland. I always encourage my friends to go to escape rooms, solve puzzles, and explore interesting places.

Sports have been an essential part of my life since childhood. I spent over 10 years doing ballroom dancing — it was an amazing time filled with emotions, competitions, and unforgettable victories. That experience taught me how to lose gracefully and work hard to stand on the podium next time. After all, where else can your dress tear apart, and you just keep competing while posing for the photographer?

Alongside dancing, I also took up cycling. This sport showed me that speed can be intoxicating, and it taught me caution and quick analysis — one wrong move, and you're crashing. I truly believe that sports help you grow in different directions, making you stronger not only physically but also mentally.

But I know how to switch to science mode too. I'm convinced that combining activity and intellect is the key to success. I focus on science and technology, achieving results thanks to my persistence and ability to seize opportunities. I love immersing myself in scientific and technological challenges, always striving for new knowledge and exciting tasks. Recently, I've achieved some pleasant successes: my scientific paper on AI ethics received an award at a national competition, and my essay on neural networks earned recognition at the international level. Yet, I still find it hard to believe that it's all real — who would have thought that my passion for programming, which I saw as a way of self-expression, would turn into something far greater than just a rebellious desire?

For me, it's essential to stay open to new opportunities, people, and emotions because these moments make me feel truly alive. It's these emotions that I want to share with others — to inspire, support, and be a friend.
