I'm an athlete. I go out there and fight my heart out.

I love getting consumer reports. I think it's one of my favourite things, studying what people have to say about the product and then trying to make it better.

Whenever I have friends over, we end up eating and talking and losing track of time, and, once in a while, singing karaoke. It reminds me of the family meals we had in Russia, which always lasted a very long time. That's a tradition I miss.

I never really had an idol.

I've been very competitive by nature from a young age, whether it was eating a bowl of pasta faster than somebody else, or always wanting to be the first one in line.

There's not many firsts in my career, as I have been a part of many tournaments and fortunate enough to win many.

I love street style, seeing how girls wear pieces and how their pair accessories with their outfit. How they pair shoes with a bag and go to day to night and change things up.
