About me

Hi, my name is Yelyzaveta, but you can call me Eli—whichever feels more comfortable for you! I’m a passionate PR and marketing specialist from Ukraine with two degrees: a bachelor’s in International Communications (Kyiv) and a postgraduate degree in PR and Corporate Communications (Toronto).

I’m an optimist who believes in the power of laughter—it brightens life and brings people closer. At the same time, I’m a dedicated professional with a perfectionist streak, always striving for exceptional results.

Empathy is one of my strongest qualities. I deeply connect with others' emotions, whether joy or sorrow, which enhances my understanding of people and strengthens my emotional intelligence. My character blends kindness with self-respect—I’m always ready to help others, but I know how to set boundaries when needed.

I value inclusivity and believe in equal rights for everyone, advocating for fair pay, accessible services, and the right to happiness for all, regardless of gender, race, color, or religion.

Meeting new people and exploring different cultures is one of my greatest joys. I find inspiration in discovering unique perspectives and fascinating cultural nuances through communication.

I am fluent in English, Ukrainian, and Russian. In my free time, I love expressing my creativity by writing poetry, designing dresses, and immersing myself in detective series.

The ever-evolving world of PR excites me—it’s full of challenges, learning opportunities, and diversity, making every day dynamic and rewarding. I can’t wait to embrace what’s next in my journey!
