Hobbies
I am a multicultural person with wide interests and deep professional knowledges. Born in Soviet Union, living through the Perestroika in Russia, moving to USA in order to continue with my profession ( molecular biology), I learned and benefited from all the realities of my life. I can say with pride that I am a decent scientific researcher, a teacher, a mother of three and a wife. I have a few hobbies of my life - literature, traveling, exploring art, and dancing. I am very devoted to my hobbies, but even more I am devoted to my family and my profession - teaching ( and still learning!) biology. Also, I believe, I can be a very good tutor of Russian, my beloved native language. One of my carrier choice was linguistics, and I was preparing myself for this carrier. Even though I ended up as biologist, I still have my expertise in Russian language.
