🔰 Ushenina lives in Kharkiv, where she was born. She is of Jewish ethnicity. Determined that the young Ushenina should develop intellectual and creative talents, her mother introduced her to chess at the age of seven, along with painting and music. She became the Ukrainian Girls' (under 20) champion at just 15 years. Many of her chess skills have been self-taught, although in 2000–2002, she studied chess in the Kharkiv sports school of Olympic reserve. During this period, her coach was International Master Artiom Tsepotan. Afterwards she received more coaching at a specialist facility in Kramatorsk.
🔰Tournament successes at Kiev in 2001 and Odessa in 2003, earned her the title Woman Grandmaster (WGM), awarded in 2003. Her performance at the 2006 Women's Chess Olympiad and subsequent results in Pardubice and Abu Dhabi in the same year then qualified her for the International Master (IM) title, awarded in January 2007.
🔰In 2016, she won the European Women's Championship in Mamaia, edging out on tie-break score Sabrina Vega, having both players scored 8.5/11 points.

🔸Round 1
⚪️Maghsoodloo,Parham (2636)
⚫️Rostami,Rouzbeh (2150)
🔸1-0
18.Qa2!
Parham takes advantage of the pin on the d5-pawn and vulnerable situation of the bishop on f5.

⚫️Darini,Pouria (2463)
🔸0-1
8... Rb8!
A typical idea. Black wants to put maximum pressure on c4 with placing the Bishop on a6 and the Knight on a5.

⚪️Kazemiyan Eski,Abolfazl (2072)
⚫️Darini,Pouria (2463)
🔸0-1
20... Bc4!
White is completely squeezed. Pouria is trying to block the position and prevent his opponent from playing c4. The move also clears the d3-square for his knights.
21.Rd1 Ng6 22. f3 exf3 23. Bxf3 Nge5 24. Bxd5 Bxd5 25. Rxd5 Nc4 26. Bb4 a5 27. e4 axb4 -+

White who had a better position in the middlegame, his advantage gradually dissipated and he eventually lost the game.
