Lisa Maslovskaya came to the University of Oklahoma after emigrating from Moscow, Russia and pursued a degree in creative media production and French. During her time at the Gaylord College of Journalism, Maslovskaya was able to flourish in multiple creative spaces and cultivate her skillset for her future. She is the second Mitchell Scholar from OU since the program's inception in 1998 and is one of only 12 students chosen to receive the prestigious scholarship, which sends future American leaders to Ireland for a year of graduate study.
