COVER MODEL: VALERIIA TSEMKO

Valeriia Tsemko @buntarkaaa_19 is an Ukraine-born model now based in the United States, whose journey blends discipline, creativity, and self-expression. She began modeling at just 14, initially balancing it as a passion alongside her studies in law and her work in music, where she collaborated closely with her creative team back home.

After relocating to the U.S., modeling naturally evolved into her full-time career; one she approaches with gratitude and purpose. Valeria thrives on set, where she channels emotion, presence, and storytelling through the camera, viewing each shoot as an opportunity to grow and reveal new dimensions of herself.

A former professional rhythmic gymnast, movement and athleticism remain central to her life and work, shaping her posture, control, and expressive range. Driven by curiosity and creative energy, Valeria is excited to continue collaborating, creating, and sharing her evolving journey.
