Karina was born and raised in Ukraine, currently managing local and remote Ukrainian teams at an e-commerce startup. Once the war in Ukraine began, Karina knew that this was her calling to make a difference and help her country, so she helped co-found Florida for Ukraine — a 501(c)(3) non-profit with a mission of helping Ukrainians both in Florida and back at home in Ukraine. With her medical background and degree in Pharmacology from the Cherkasy Medical Academy, Karina has spearheaded Florida for Ukraine’s humanitarian aid operations. Together with partner organizations and a network of volunteers on the ground, Karina has helped establish a supply chain network to help deliver supplies and necessities to those that need them on the ground when they need them most. Ukraine has always been close to Karina’s heart as her homeland and birthplace, and Karina is always passionate about doing what it takes to contribute to the place that she calls home.
