Before the war, I worked at a factory making electrical wiring for cars. I was used to a steady job, my team, and the simple everyday routine. I lived a peaceful life and honestly never imagined how fast everything could change.

After the war, I want to stay in the military — this path has become a part of who I am. I want to share my experience with new soldiers, support them through the hardest moments, and do everything I can to make sure they’re prepared and stay alive.
