Meet OLIVIIA Tcargush | Actress & Model

We had the good fortune of connecting with OLIVIIA Tcargush and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi OLIVIIA, why did you pursue a creative career?
From a very young age, I instinctively gravitated towards activities that brought people together. Whether it was creating games, writing short plays for improvisation, or dancing to promote a sense of fun and unity, I always felt a deep connection to the idea of using art as a means to unite people.

Art, in its various forms, holds the incredible power to create spaces where people feel safe, understood, and closer to one another.

I’ve always followed my heart on this journey, knowing that my calling lies in the ability of art to transcend boundaries and create shared experiences. Whether it’s a simple game or an intricate dance, I find immense joy in contributing to the sense of togetherness that art can bring. Pursuing an artistic career has been a natural and heartfelt choice for me, driven by a belief in the transformative power of creativity.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
As an actress and model based in Los Angeles, my journey has been a series of challenges and triumphs that have shaped the professional I am today. One of the significant hurdles was my limited knowledge of English before the age of 16. However, with a clear goal in mind, I embraced the challenge, dedicating myself to mastering English. By the age of 18, armed with fluent language skills, I made the bold move to Los Angeles to pursue my degree in acting. Today, it’s truly flattering that most people can’t discern my accent!

My artistic journey began at a young age, marked by opportunities to feature on magazine covers and in campaigns. I devoted four years to a theater company, gracing Moscow’s renowned stages, participating in TV shows, and traveling with various productions. These experiences not only brought immense fun but also provided invaluable lessons and growth opportunities!

One defining aspect of my personality is my stubbornness and pride. Knowing what I want and understanding how to achieve it fuels my acting and motivates me to work harder every day. The journey has not been easy, but overcoming challenges has been instrumental in my personal and professional growth.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
If my best friend were visiting the area for a week, I’d make sure to show them the best time ever. We’d kick off the week with an exploration of Hollywood, strolling through iconic landmarks and enjoying the vibrant energy. A hike would be on the agenda to take in the breathtaking views of the city and its serene natural spots. To make it an authentic LA experience, we’d grab refreshing smoothies or smoothie bowls, soaking in the sunshine.

The Grove would be our go-to spot, whether it’s for shopping, catching a movie, or having a girly time at Sephora. We’d explore the Farmers Market, trying out different cuisines and discovering exotic fruits we’ve never had before.

As the sun sets, we’d dress up and head to Beverly Hills for an evening walk, followed by cocktails at a few of my favorite spots to debrief our adventures.

Given my love for partying and going out, the week wouldn’t be complete without a night or two on the town. We’d hit up some parties. LA has so much to offer in terms of fun, interesting, and exciting experiences, and I’d make sure my friend gets to enjoy the best the city has to offer!

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
Absolutely, I’d love to give a heartfelt shoutout to my parents. They’ve been my rock throughout this journey, offering unwavering support, encouragement, and an abundance of love.
