Personal Life:

Born and raised in a small suburb in Illinois, with nationality being Belarussian. I grew up speaking Russian.

I have always been fascinated with computers. Specifically computer systems, operating systems, the internet, the cloud, web development, and lots more.

My other interests other than computers is philosophy. Another big interest of mine is Economics. Specifically, Austrian Economics and Banking (Fractional vs Full vs Free).

  • Fun Fact: I have my own section in the Lew Rockwell, you can read about it here. I was 16 years at the time of writing this email, in my Junior year of High School; I am now in college, and I am still a huge fan of studying economics purely just for fun.

    • Another interest of mine is music. Follow me on Spotify! At the bottom of this page, in the footer, I have a lot more links!

    I love to make projects that serve a purpose. Whether that is increasing my knowledge on a topic (like this one), to reach an important deadline for an assignment, or to help others learn.
