Career path
– I can write poetry, I can command a cavalry squadron. Something will turn up.«Buddha's Little Finger»Viktor Pelevin
Has been working in IT since 2004. He started developing his own desktop software and then went into employment.
He rose from a part-time junior developer to a department head with 50 subordinates. Here's his resume.
In his off-work time, he acts as a psychologist and coach: receives clients and conducts his own trainings.
ЗKnowledge of applied psychology is very helpful in management, in particular:
- reduces employee turnover;
- helps find unconventional ways to motivate employees;
- improves the speed and quality of recruiting, interviewing, and onboarding new team members;
- helps prevent burnout.
Due to the specific nature of his work experience, most of his clients are executives or managers.
Since 2001, he has been writing prose, poetry, and songs. The motif or melody of a song can appear in a dream or simply come "from within".

Fun facts
Was involved in neural networks long before it became mainstream: in 2008, he successfully defended his thesis on neural network analysis of currency markets.
In 2010, he changed his first name (on his passport), and in 2022, his last name (also officially).
The reasons for both were quite astonishing: the new last name was heard in a dream, and new first name was suggested by a clairvoyant as more suitable.
Endured clinical depression. Had a near-death experience (twice). This experience profoundly changed his life – in particular, the "rolling force" from Carlos Castaneda's texts was felt directly, physically. He also came to deeply understand nature of time.
