Natalia began her career at Tel Aviv University, engaging in scientific research. Since 2007, her creative outlook to life made it easy to own and lead her own advertising company called “Raygler,” which specialises in indoor and outdoor advertising.
In 2018, she opened “Nk _boutique,” which focused on exclusive prints, but unfortunately, in 2022, she was forced to close all her businesses due to the geopolitical situation. Since April, she has been residing in Sri Lanka and enjoying our paradise home.
