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.
