The design unites all the things I'm interested in. It allowed me to become a specialist in things I like. I am a designer.
Started career with occasional clients, learned to work on projects in an ad agency, designed a new product in my hometown's company, moved to work at the state's search giant, art-directed several startups.
After working in companies of different types and sizes, I've got multidisciplinary experience™ of making design, research, art-direction, management, and launching products for millions of people.
Years in the industry helped me to figure out some important principles of design: empathy, transparency, honesty. I feel happier doing things for people first, and businesses feel happy when it gives back.

People are my source of inspiration. I've already met nice girls and guys from around the world and I hope to meet more in the future to learn something new from them. Thanks to all of you.
I’m generally picky about what I give a like so you’re doing something right!
