Visionary leader, great administrator, creative, principled and mission-driven, growth and learning are central in my world view.
Imaginative and abstract thinker, can spot patterns and generate unexpected ideas keeping focus on their feasibility and sustainability.
Care about values, justice and fairness.
Like to serve people, I find energy and self-respect in helping others, attentive to human thoughts and emotions.
I thrived in a range of fields such as software development, coaching, project management, entrepreneurship.
I studied math and programming at school. I was attending afterschool programming class since 8th grade in middle school. I continued my course with high education and got a Master’s degree in Math and Computer science. Now I have a plenty of software development experience on several languages, Python and Java are mostly preferred. At my first job, at CQG being in a role of software engineer, I participated in every phase of software development life cycle: requirements gathering, coding, testing, deploying, technical support and customer trainings. It gave me an understanding how entire IT industry work.
As I love doing things efficiently I participated in an internal company initiative in a role of scrum master/process coach for development process improvement. I was helping to improve tools - dashboards that were collecting, extracting, analyzing and visualizing data on development teams performance. During this work I was obsessed of how key data insights/metrics helped to improve our development productivity.
Later I decided to broader my experience with team productivity work and became a project manager. it was my job to make sure my team was focused and engaged, I was using data insights as a useful tool for that. I am also empathetic to people and can easily put myself in others shoes.
After I moved to the United States I was inspired by a more entrepreneurial route in life and decided to try doing thing on my personal initiative. I helped my friend to organize a small legal consulting business. I made a company website and was running online advertisement campaign for her.
I like to push myself on advancement. Now I continue learning things that are happening in the ML industry. I recently joined the Data Science community to share what I learn and contribute.
