Irina Sverzhanovskaya

My name is Irina Sverzhanovskaya and I was born in Minsk, Belarus. I am 17-years-old. I'm interested in finding out more about Chernobyl and ways to help the people there. My plan for the future is to go to college and succeed in life.

I live in The Bronx, New York. My neighborhood is really mixed.

One interesting fact about me is that I am committed to things that I set my mind to. (October 2009)

Alexandra is the opposite of me. She doesn't like doing her homework, she's heavy and she's lazy.
