I have just graduated from NYU with the Bachelor of Science in Finance. I have been interning in Private Equity for the past couple of years. However, during my couple of years on Wall Street, I realized that eventually I want my work to be related to people. I mean real people and real problems.

I was born and raised in Belarus, and Russian is my native language. Additionally, I speak/ understand basic Japanese and German. I believe that my unique cultural background, personality, and overall life vision make me very fit for the work with the United Nations. Most importantly, I really want to help people, and it seems to be one of the top priorities in my life. Therefore, UN seems to be an ideal place for my career and life. Working for the UN is my dream. I know it’s really tough to get in. First, I simply have to START trying. I’ll try to stay as optimistic as possible while trying. haha
