March 1985 in Haradok , Vitebsk Region , Belarussian SSR , Soviet Union ) is a Belarusian biathlete and former cross-country skier .

Nastassja Dubaresawa was initially active as a cross-country skier. Here she made her international debut in 2005 at the Junior World Championships in Rovaniemi , where she finished 51 in the double pursuit and 37 in the 5-kilometer freestyle. It was not until October 2007 that more races followed. She contested her first World Cup race in Düsseldorf in a team sprint, which she finished 23rd. Other appearances in the World Cup took place sporadically, mostly the Belarusian started in lower class races, such as the Eastern Europe Cup , the Alpine Cup or FIS races . The first major event was the 2009 Nordic World Ski Championships in Liberec . Dubaresawa was 60th in the 10-kilometer classic, 54th in the pursuit, 30th in the 30-kilometer freestyle and 60th in the freestyle sprint. At the Tour de Ski 2009/2010 she achieved a result in the points in the World Cup for the first time in a 10-kilometer classic race in Val di Fiemme as 28th. This was followed by participation in the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver . Dubaresawa was used in four races. In the classic sprint she was 42nd, in the pursuit race 53rd, 44th over 30-kilometer classic and with Alena Sannikawa , Wolha Wassiljonak and Kazjaryna Rudakowa tenth in the relay race.

For the 2010/11 season , Dubaresawa switched from cross-country skiing to biathlon. In Beitostølen she made her debut in the IBU Cup at the start of the season , where she was 40th and 26th in sprint races and thus won first points. The World Cup debut in Östersund followed a week later . As 55th of the sprint, she immediately qualified for the pursuit, in which she was 49th. At Holmenkollen in Oslo , she won a World Cup point for the first time as the 40th sprint. The following season , she improved her personal best in a pursuit race to a 33rd place in Östersund. A week later she was used for the first time in the season in Hochfilzen and was fifth with this. In addition, she improved her personal best again massively to tenth place in the sprint and thus achieved a top ten placement for the first time. Dubaresawa achieved her best World Cup placement to date in the first sprint race in 2012 with a seventh place.

In September 2016 she married a Finn and took his name ( Kinnunen in Finnish ).
