I have been in research since 2005 and am most interested in Artificial Intelligence, Linguistics – cognitive, theoretical, applied, cognitive science and multi-modal interfaces and Robotics. I love this field because it is exciting and it really studies why people do what they do.

I went to Moscow State University and received a Ph.D. in 2002 in Computational Semantics from Moscow State Linguistic University.

My biggest challenge is due to the complexity of humans and always having to prove oneself. The men in this field do not expect someone who is beautiful to be bright as well. The challenge is having them listen to what you say - it can be uncomfortable.

I like the work I do and am enthusiastic about it. I am responsible and persistent and the research I do is good for the community.

Recently, I was awarded 2 projects  and I am very proud of them. I will be working on them for 5 years.

I am starting in the university to work on my projects and deciding if I will stay in Academia or open my own company.

My family who ceaselessly supports me inspires me. My husband tolerates my absences from home because we know it is all for the future of my son , to provide him with a good life.

I want to be remembered as a nice person and the enjoyment I received from doing the work I do with the hopes of doing good for Humanity.

I love reading books, watching TV and movies, and  going to photo exhibits. I enjoy spending time with family and friends.
