Hello! My name is Anna Konovalenko, and I am originally from Kyiv, Ukraine. I studied in Scotland and travelled a lot before coming back home. The combination of lived experiences continues to shape my journalistic narrative. I tend to be more perspective-driven and focus on stories that emerge from first-person angles. My experience in advocacy work helps me see through the veil of superficiality and tune into real voices. I enjoy photography in my free time, which often helps me during assignments. Also, I am very much into reading, which constantly enriches my language and fuels me with cultural and historical insights.
