As a spoken word artist, I have performed and slammed in many cities, including Toronto, Vancouver, Honolulu, Portland, Sydney, and Melbourne. I shortlisted for the League of Canadian Poets spoken word prize and have twice been part of the Toronto International Storytelling Festival.

I am currently available to perform 10-60 minute sets for all-ages as well as mature audiences. The topics of my spoken word poems include mental health, emotional healing, trauma recovery, decolonization, addiction, self-love, feminism, motherhood, and the experience of being a Ukrainian, Russian-indigenous immigrant.

If you’d like to discuss hiring me as a performer, please email wildewords (at) vironika (dot) org with details or DM @vironikawilde on Instagram. I’m based in London, Ontario but I love to travel. Let me know where you need me to go.
