Liliya Chepurny
Liliya wants to live in a world filled with travel documentaries that come bundled with creamy milk chocolate and a force field around her keyboard that repels cats and sticky-fingered children.
As a content marketer with more than a decade of experience, she’s worked with ABC, FOX, A&E, KCRA, KOVR, Russian Time Magazine, D’Primeramano Magazine, and on platforms that held multi-million subscribers online. She was crowned as one of our own Miss Russian California winners and has been featured on international stages.
When she’s not trademarking a new business venture or backpacking the Appalachian Trail, you can find her barefoot in the kitchen rolling out another delicious sourdough or answering the question ‘why’ for the eleventy-bajillionth time.
Her PhD in adrenaline-rushing adventures ensures there’s never a dull moment in Liliya’s life. She believes life is meant to be enjoyed in the present moment, which is how one day she can be fly fishing on the river and the next day on a plane to Germany. Her home is filled with a consistent dose of laughter, an unbelievable amount of plants and building new habitats for whatever animal her children decide to ‘rescue’ that week.
