She volunteered to join the Armed Forces of Ukraine as a paramedic, where she’s been on the front lines of the war helping to save lives for nearly the entire past year, 24/7 with no holidays or weekends. Her devotion to helping others excel in their careers was inspiring, and she had a positive impact on many peoples’ lives.įrom the very first day of the invasion of Ukraine, Yana chose to help in the fight for Ukraine’s freedom.
