Originally from Ukraine, she moved to Israel at age five after her parents received jobs there as doctors. In September 2013 she moved with her family from Israel to Samara, Russian Federation, after her father got a new job. She subsequently switched nationality from Israel to represent the Russian Federation in 2014.

I could not compete for almost a whole season because I did not have citizenship and a residency permit." (vkonline.ru, 25 Mar 2014; russian.rt.com, 19 Sep 2013)
