Early life and education

Sanko was born on 31 December 1998 in Azov. She resides in Moscow and attends the Moscow State University of Land Management, where she is studying architecture.[1] Prior to entering pageantry, Sanko had worked as a model for an online catalogue.[2]

Pageantry

In 2019, Sanko was selected to represent Azov at Miss Russia 2019.[3] She went on to win the competition, succeeding Yulia Polyachikhina of Chuvashia. Her runners-up were Arina Verina of Yekaterinburg and Ralina Arabova of Tatarstan.[4][5][6][7] As part of her winning prize, Sanko was awarded a brand new car and ₽3 million.[8][9] As Miss Russia, Sanko was given the opportunity to represent Russia in both Miss World 2019 and Miss Universe 2019, however, due to conflicting dates she will only compete in Miss World; Russia ultimately withdrew from Miss Universe following delays in announcing the date and venue of the competition, which would have made it difficult to find a replacement for Sanko to compete and secure that entrant an American visa.[10][11][12]
