Ekaterina is a legal consultant at TUT.BY. She graduated from the Law Faculty of BSU. Before TUT.BY, she worked in a large advertising company.

She was detained on May 18, 2021, as part of a criminal case against TUT.BY for tax evasion on an especially large scale. A few days later, she was placed under house arrest.

In April 2022, it became known that Ekaterina's preventive measure had been changed from house arrest to a written undertaking not to leave the country.

Kateryna did not appear at the TUT.BY trial, which began in January 2023 behind closed doors; by that time, she had already left the country.

In February 2025, court hearings began on the criminal case within the framework of special proceedings under four articles - the outcome is unknown.
