🌍 I was born, raised, and built a successful career in Russia before moving to the United States in 2023. Since 2026, I have been a U.S. permanent resident. I have lived in California, New Mexico, New York, and a few other states along the way, which has given me a broad perspective on both professional and everyday life in the U.S.

🥾 Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, especially in California, following soccer, and composing music, mainly short pieces for string quartet. One of my favorite memories is attending the 2018 FIFA World Cup Final in Moscow.

👨‍👧‍👦 I am also very close to my godchildren, who mean a great deal to me.
