Subject

I'm Karyna, copywriter, author, word designer —

I may have different titles in different companies, but my goal always stays the same: to choose unaccidental words that would shape the brand, strengthen it, and play to its advantage. In 2016, I founded Slovo studio — a copywriting collective based in Kharkiv, Ukraine. As a lead copywriter at Slovo, I created brand names and strategic texts for more than a hundred companies, including Kharkiv Airport, Grace Tea, International House language school, and award-winning design studio Patoka. In 2021, I decided to stop expanding the studio and growing the team. Instead, I focused on crafting brand verbal identities. Now, I work on my own, but I reach out to professional editors and translators from time to time, and I’m always open to exciting collaborations.
