Vernikov was born on July 15, 2002, in Bridgewater Township, New Jersey.

Career

Early career

Vernikov competed in ladies' singles for the United States, but never qualified for the U.S. Championships.[1]

2018–2019 season

In 2019, Vernikov teamed up with Evgeni Krasnopolski, 14 years her senior, to compete in pair skating for Israel. She had never competed the discipline prior to the partnership.[2] In their debut international competition, the 2019 Open Ice Mall Cup, Vernikov/Krasnopolski won the bronze medal behind Croatia's Lana Petranović / Antonio Souza-Kordeiru and Zoe Jones / Christopher Boyadji of Great Britain.

2019–2020 season

Vernikov/Krasnopolski opened their season with a tenth-place finish at 2019 CS Nebelhorn Trophy. They then won the bronze medal at the Volvo Open Cup in November. At their second Challenger, 2019 CS Golden Spin of Zagreb, Vernikov/Krasnpolski set personal bests in all segments and finished 11th overall.

In December, Vernikov/Krasnopolski won the national title at the Israeli Championships. As the only pair representing the country, they were assigned to both the 2020 European Championships and the 2020 World Championships. They qualified to the free skating and finished 13th overall at Europeans. Vernikov/Krasnopolski then competed at Challenge Cup in February, finishing in fifth. The World Championships, scheduled for March, were postponed and eventually cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

2020–2021 season

In October, Vernikov/Krasnopolski, alongside their coaches and the Israeli national team, relocated their training base from Hackensack, New Jersey, to Montclair State University in Montclair, New Jersey.[3] They received their first-ever Grand Prix assignment, the 2020 Rostelecom Cup, but withdrew due to pandemic travel restrictions. Since assignments for the 2020–21 Grand Prix were allotted based on proximity to skaters' home country and/or training location, they were later reassigned to 2020 Skate America to replace Russia's Evgenia Tarasova / Vladimir Morozov; under normal circumstances, skaters who withdraw from a Grand Prix will not be assigned a replacement one. Vernikov/Krasnopolski finished eighth at Skate America. They placed nineteenth at the 2021 World Championships.[4]
