I am a freelance illustrator and used to be a teaching assistant at HITRECORD, a collaborative online platform for artists and creators. I have a PhD in experimental phonetics from the University of Stuttgart, where I studied the acoustic and perceptual aspects of speech and language. I also have certifications in digital illustration, concept art, character design, and 3D modeling from OSfG and CGMA, two leading online schools for design and art.With over 9 years of experience in managing text-to-speech projects, I have developed strong analytical and technical skills in linguistics, phonetics, speech acoustics, and programming. I speak 7 languages, including Russian, English, and German, and I enjoy applying my linguistic knowledge and artistic talent to create engaging and expressive visual and auditory content. My mission is to combine art and speech to enhance creative communication and storytelling.
