How she got here

For Irina, it all started with online slots – a simple invitation from a friend. After playing for a while, she wanted to understand how it all works, the relationship between the player and the house in iGaming and even outside of it. Days and nights of research came about, and to this day, she still wants to be up to date with all game mechanics and legislation adopted by international gambling sites. Irina believes that all players need to know these details, and she wishes to communicate them in the best way possible.

How she spends her time

When she is not absorbed in her research studies, Irina roams the bookstores to find her new literature or philosophy obsessions. Although rarely a maker, she is a lover of the arts, and she thinks of how to put words best together – whether in poetry, prose, articles, or diary entries. She is up for all friendly debates, but she enjoys the understanding silence of her three cats in her downtime.
