I am a cultural and historical sociologist researching the legacies of political violence, with a particular focus on memory, identity, and state formation in Ukraine and the broader Central and Eastern European region. Over the past decade, I have conducted archival and ethnographic research in Ukraine, Poland, the United States, Canada, and beyond—examining how historical injustices, including environmental ones, continue to shape contemporary politics and social life.
