Here’s a huge picture of me

Hello!

My name is Pasha.

Born in Moscow. Raised in NYC.

Lived a while in Paris, Amsterdam, & Istanbul.

Last two years under the Caucasus Mountains in Tbilisi, Georgia.

I’ve photographed campaigns with Orlando Bloom in South Africa. I’ve directed films in Davos for the World Economic Forum. I’ve acted alongside Morgan Freeman. I’ve been blown off a boat in Austin, Texas. I rapped in front of large audiences at iconic NYC venues. I’ve fallen in love in the house of the old pawnbroker woman from Crime & Punishment in Saint Petersburg. I’ve made lifelong friends in the Russian diaspora in Tbilisi.

All the while I was writing. That’s the only real constant.

Now, with a fresh book in hand, I return to NYC. Maybe for a short while. Maybe for long.

We got things cookin’

Lots of things in the works for 2025. Sign up for my Substack in the meantime…I’ll be firing things up there this year.
