Maryna Biletska(I)

Maryna Biletska grew up in the small city of Cherkasy, Ukraine. Her father left to join a cult before she was born, so she was raised by her single mother, who worked tirelessly to make ends meet. When Maryna was four, her mother met her stepfather, and she lived with them until she turned 18. From a young age, Maryna found solace in writing poetry and music-her favorite hobbies. Dreaming of freedom and new opportunities, she saw America as the ideal place to pursue her aspirations. At 18, she seized the chance to participate in the "Work and Travel" program through her university, which brought her to New York City, leaving her small hometown behind. Maryna earned two bachelor's degrees-one in applied linguistics and another in tour management and hospitality. She also attended music college, where she honed her stage performance and musical skills. In 2017, she competed on the Ukrainian version of The Voice, where she caught the attention of Michael Angelo Batio's tour manager. This led to an opportunity to join the band on their European tour. In 2018, she moved to the United States as an artist and has since obtained her green card. In 2022, Maryna signed a deal with Fine Gold Music, a multi-faceted boutique music firm based in New York City. The following year, she embarked on her acting journey, continuously refining her craft. She currently trains at 4th Wall Acting Studio and has signed with The Avenue Model & Talent Agency (Southeast), Seen Entertainment (CA), and TTM (TN).
