Short description

I defended a school research project on the topic “The origins of Old Believers in Latvia” and received a grade of 9 (2020). As a volunteer, I participated in cleaning and maintaining the burial sites of soldiers who died in the battles for Riga during World War II, as part of the Brotherhood of Young Old Believers (2017–2020). I also took part in academic conferences dedicated to the study of Old Believers in Latvia (2019).
