My Story
In 2022, Daria was about to leave her hometown Moscow, Russia and immigrate to Tashkent, Uzbekistan. This decision was made in a single day, making it quick and spontaneous. Initially, she felt disappointed and uncertain about what to expect. Separated from her friends, school, and everything familiar, Daria managed to pull herself together, continuing her studies and maintaining her daily routines. During their time in Tashkent, her father established a company in the area of cryptocurrency and digital asset management. This was when Daria ensured that skilled specialists are always in demand, regardless of the circumstances. She understood that by continuing to study diligently, she could become as accomplished a specialist as her father. It reinforced the belief that one should never give up.
Daria loves communicating with kids, and this is the reason why she teaches workshops to elementary schoolers about making figures of polymer clay for the Charity Fair. Mentoring evening economics school is one of her activities, as well as organizing the school decoration for various events. She is making a design of a school merch in order to rally the team of school students. In addition, Daria is a manager of organization school meetings with interesting people, for example, economics lectures from the rector of the New Economic School. She also achieved great results in olympiads of economics, data analysis and management, especially regional stage and olympiads of the High School of Economics.
Daria’s primary objective in attending a top university is to become an exceptional specialist, harnessing her knowledge to contribute positively to the world. She seeks to immerse herself in an environment filled with like-minded individuals who share her passion and drive. Beyond academics, she dreams of building a fulfilling life centered around her love for creating art and innovative projects. By connecting with inspiring peers and mentors, Daria aims to develop not only her expertise but also lifelong relationships that will fuel her journey to make meaningful, artistic contributions that resonate with and uplift society.
