About

With 18+ years of experience in energy policy, governance, and strategic advisory, I co-founded and currently serve as Vice President of DiXi Group — a leading Ukrainian think tank advancing reforms in energy, climate, and security. I’ve led high-impact projects in partnership with USAID, EU, FCDO, EBRD, World Bank, IFC and others — driving policy change, regulatory improvements, and cross-sector collaboration. My work spans stakeholder engagement, research, policy design, and managing coalitions that support Ukraine’s integration with the EU and global energy markets. Beyond Ukraine, I’ve contributed to energy transition and governance projects in Tunisia and Central Asia, bringing a comparative, cross-regional perspective. I remain focused on transforming Ukraine’s energy sector, strengthening institutional resilience, and enabling transparent, sustainable energy markets aligned with international best practices.
