Elena was born and raised in Chernivtsi, where she graduated from school. From 2014 to 2018 she studied at the Chernivtsi Medical College of Bukovynian State Medical University, majoring in “Medical Affairs”. Since 2018 she has been a student of Yuriy Fedkovych Chernivtsi National University in the field of Political Science.

“Freedom is independence.” Freedom is an opportunity to choose the path of development of one’s own life. Freedom is the ability to take actions following your desires, which determines the essence of the person, not as a result of extraneous coercion. A person is born to be free and to be responsible for the way he or she lives. For me, USF is a story about youth. About free youth living in independent Ukraine. Young people who change the future. USF is a group of like-minded people who together can do even more than one by one. These are friends, who are ready to defend their homeland side by side and fight for its independence and freedom viribus unitis (together).
