Over 8 years of experience in the IT industry. Well shaped tech knowledge and creativity allow me to utilise critical thinking, spanning the process through customer support, while
troubleshooting and developing new capabilities on the multiple platforms. As I went long
road as a Software Engineer, I have a team-oriented culture and able to deliver a significant
individual contribution while collaborating with and strengthening teammates across Business Development and Professional Services organisations.
As a professional in the IT segment, I could share a broad knowledge across several technical domains, coupled with deep knowledge in systems management, system administration,
software engineering
I’m a creative thinker and like to explore alternative solutions to the problems and have an
open mind about what might work best. I’m always learning - whether I am learning to help
my team and customer work through new concepts and technology or having just fun of getting new technology in my knowledge stack. My passion is travelling and different kind of
physical and mental activity like football, yoga, poker, tango and even boogie-woogie.
My current goal is to create something very useful for humanity.
