It’s katia!

My pronouns are She/Her.

I immigrated from the Soviet Union (I was born in what is now Odessa, Ukraine) when I was two years old and grew up in Los Angeles. I speak Russian, some French, and am currently learning Japanese.

I suffer from PTSD & C-PTSD, as well as uni-polar depression, and it is my hope to normalize neuro-divergency through awareness and as a result, understanding and compassion.

I love to drink tea, often visit gardens, and play video games in my free time.
