Born and raised in Minsk, Belarus, Belaziorava has a background in software development, but discovered a passion for aviation. She achieved her FAA ratings in the United States and is a CFI, CFII, and Gold Seal flight instructor. She has been a flight instructor since 2021 and is a Part 135 CE-525 pilot and a check instructor at Skill Aviation, a Part 61 flight school in Waukegan, Illinois.

In 2024, Belaziorava was awarded a flight training scholarship by the Chicago Leading Edge Women in Aviation chapter, where she trained in upset prevention and recovery at aerobatic legend Patty Wagstaff’s flight school. Belaziorava started off 2025 by earning her ATP certificate.
