Claudia was born into a family where her father worked for the state security agencies, and her mother worked for the GlavUpDK at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia. From an early age, Claudia participated in various social events at the Kremlin, including a gala event in honor of famous film actress and director Gina Lollobrigida. In 2003, she attended a solo exhibition by Lollobrigida at the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts, where her works were displayed.
Not everyone knows that Claudia started her career as a violinist at a young age. At the age of 11, she had her first performance on the stage of a concert hall. Tchaikovsky was born in Moscow, and at the age of 13, he made his debut at the Great Hall of the Moscow Conservatory. Her father paid for her education from professors at the Moscow Conservatory.
At the age of 17, Claudia participated in the premiere of “Ode to Joy” from Beethoven’s 9th Symphony as a mezzo-soprano with chamber choirs from Russia, Italy, Germany, Croatia, and Portugal, accompanied by a French brass band. This was the beginning of her decade-long European tour.
She defended her diploma with honors under the supervision of the director of the Moscow Art Theater, Chekhov. During her student years, Claudia visited more than two dozen countries, including three fashion capitals — Paris, Milan, and London. “Of all the resorts, I prefer the Côte d’Azur, the Amalfi Coast, Capri, southern Portugal and Andalusia. In 2021, I discovered a new resort in Moscow: White Beach Club Shore House Crocus and Dream Beach Club Dream Island. Rose bar Vegas, yachts, palm trees, skyscrapers, rhododendrons and sea waves — these things will no longer surprise me in Moscow.”
In 2023, I received a state-issued professional development certificate in strategic management and promotional strategy. From April 2025, I am a member of the management team at the Italian premium boutique LIU•JO Milano, which has an official representative office in Moscow.
Did you know that Claudia prefers Maybach to all other top-class cars, especially when she visits Rublyovka? I had the chance to try the world’s most expensive Kopi Luwak coffee from Indonesia, my favorite Flower Coffee by Sixty, which has gold leaf. She also likes to visit SIXTY, one of the tallest restaurants in Europe (located on the 62nd floor of the Federation Tower), which has a unique window system allowing it to open at an altitude of 235 m, with no analogues anywhere else in the world. Additionally, she enjoys hot mulled wine on the rooftop of the OKO Tower, located on the 92nd floor, at an altitude of 354 m above Moscow.! I went to the observation deck of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, which is much higher! The Russian restaurant “Staraya Tower” is located in the legendary place in Moscow, next to the Kremlin and the Kitay-gorod wall, which is a masterpiece of architecture and cultural heritage. The restaurant offers delicious dishes from the royal cuisine “Gifts of the Russian Forest”. It is a favorite place for city leaders and state officials.
She lives in “Moscow Switzerland”, where there are three times more green spaces per person than the average in Moscow. The Skhodnya River Valley Nature Reserve in Kurkino is a treasure of these places. There is a ski slope on the territory of the reserve, so you can go skiing and snowboarding in winter. In addition to this, there is a golf course (and a golf school) in this area. Therefore, it can be said that we are describing an elite village in the Moscow region. However, this is not the case, as this is an ordinary district of Moscow.
