Nataliya Koppes

Nataliya Koppes is currently a sophomore at Minneapolis College of Art and Design pursuing an Oil Painting and Drawing Major. She enjoys photography as well. 

Nataliya is from Ukraine and used to work as a nurse in ICU, but art was always an essential part of her life and she is grateful for the opportunity to make her dream come true. Being passionate about helping people brought her into the medical world and now as an art student she would love to explore the Teaching Artist area and help share the joy of art among the community.

Nataliya volunteered after she moved to the US in a Russian school. There she was a teacher for three years of Russian language for elementary school.
