I prefer to characterize myself as an active person who is always looking for new opportunities, can make things done and take the full responsibility for the taken project. I want to be proud of everything that I'm doing. So there can be no compromises in quality of my work.

Social side
I actively took part in range of social activities: created and lead the team in student entertainment contest, successfully participated in competitions, set up a start-up and won competition organized by SPbU Endowment fund.

Career side
During my career path I've tried the roles of consultant and project manager and in a few business industries. But one stays the same: I do my best and perform with dedication. All this results in perfectly accomplished project and good financial results for my employers and clients.

Entrepreneurial side
In February 2017 I decided to try myself as an entrepreneur and grounded my game developing company. Acting as general manager and game designer I'm running Coon Games Studio for already more than two years.
