Career

Early career

Geynish began figure skating in 2010.[3] As a singles skater, she trained at the Megasport Sport Palace in Moscow.[5] She would make the decision to switch to pair skating in 2019 due to the discipline typically having more career longevity when compared to women's singles skating in Russia.[4] She would then begin training at the Moscow Skating School "Vorobyovy Gory" to train under Nina Mozer and Vladislav Zhovnirski. Her first pair partner was Andrey Sachkov, who she skated with until 2021.[6][7] Together, the pair won bronze on the junior level at the 2019 IceLab.[8]

Teaming up with Ilya Mironov in 2021, the pair won would win the gold medal on the junior level at the 2021 Budapest Trophy, finish eleventh at the 2022 Russian Championships, and finished fifth at the 2022 Russian Junior Championships. Their partnership would dissolved following the 2021–22 figure skating season.[9]

In May 2023, it was announced that the pair had planned to begin competing for Uzbekistan and had submitted documents to the Figure Skating Federation of Russia in request for a release which was ultimately successful.[12][10]
