I graduated from Saint-Petersburg Electrotechnical University “LETI”, bachelor degree program “PR and Advertising”. After that, I mastered a program in a speciality “PR and Global Marketing” in Towson University (Baltimore, Maryland).

After university, I lived in Saint-Petersburg. And worked in commercial sales for about 6 years. My life was pro-corporate and connected with lots of travels and countries. It was my job to rise some corporate brands (like Apple, Cisco, Dell etc) on local markets (CIS).
Me and my team created for business full-circle corporate infrastructure (innovation office spaces, conference halls, modern museum etc).

After that - I’ve raised startups like as COO/CEO/BizDev, in during couples years.

Now - I’m looking for an awesome people around the world and communicate / meet up / create and execute innovative and creative ideas!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Until recently, I liked to stay in hotels.
I adore the architecture and I like to stay in some unusual places and explore my new travel point.
But now I wanna explore culture, local habits, unbelievable locations through locals - and, to be honest, communicate more and more to expand my horizons and improve my English skills.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I left my comfortable life (expensive and pro-corporative) and was challenged myself — to move to a new country, to a new culture, to another abitional position (CEO), to a new kind of business activity, and take a huge responsibility for people, ideas and success.

I did it. All is great! :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach high-end (hope so!) and basic management: creating teams, companies architecture, developing and optimizing general processes (at the different lvls) for positive business results, working on motivation, building P&L (profit and loss) models - and all about buisness-systems and building a business.

I really wanna learn all about GPT, AI and all of similar to the theme. I'm really interested how technologies can change fundamental processes. And I wanna be a part of this changes and, perhaps, will apply my knowledge and experience.

Аnd one more thing....My passion, energy and creative - is a photo. I wanna learn to create amazing works and I also wanna learn from professionals, who is creating commercial works for brands.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like co-cooking a meal. And I will do it together with pleasure.
