"I'm a professional rally and circuit racing driver, born in Ukraine. Behind the wheel I've worked my way up from Subaru and Mitsubishi to R5 / Rally2 machinery.",
"Alongside the European Championship I've competed in the Ukrainian and Baltic championships, and raced and won in Finland. Most of my rally career has been spent in four-wheel drive.",
"Circuit racing has run in parallel. In 2011 I won the Russian Cup in the Mitjet series, and since then there have been racing projects in Ferraris, Porsches and other competition machinery.",
"Major international brands have worked with me over the years, among them Gazprom, DAMAC and Rosneft, and I've competed in LADA projects too.",
"I know motorsport from well beyond the cockpit. I've been a marshal and a steward, an organiser, a team manager and an instructor, and I coach drivers as well: several of my students have gone from ordinary road driving to a successful rally debut. Almost twenty years in the sport, not only behind the wheel but inside it."

Then came practical psychology in Kyiv and work as a riding instructor: competitions, Candidate for Master of Sport, a place in view at the “Dynamo” Olympic reserve base. In 2007 my horse died, and that chapter closed.",
