About Me

Hello! My name is Yasha Bykhovsky. I am a sophomore at The Bromfield School in Harvard, MA. My primary fields of study are history and anthropology, though I have experience in other STEM fields. I can speak, read, and write in Russian, including pre-reform orthography. In 2016, I started a genealogical research project that led to the creation of my family tree and the solving of several multigenerational mysteries.
