Beyond the Code and the Canvas

My journey began not in one field, but in many. From studying advanced mathematics and physics in Moscow to embracing the nascent world of web design in Australia, I've always been driven by a curiosity for how systems work—be they logical, artistic, or social.

This dual passion defined my career. By day, I was a web developer, building digital solutions for agencies, studios, and clients across the globe. By night, I was a VJ, painting with light and pixels at international festivals, performing for thousands and exploring the frontiers of real-time multimedia.,

I soon realised that the most powerful creations emerge from collaboration. This belief led me to found the VJ Union, a community that has grown from a simple forum into a global network of over 50,000 artists across 193 countries. It's a testament to the power of shared knowledge and collective creativity.

Today, my focus is on synthesis. I apply my deep technical expertise—honed by a recent intensive focus on technologies like Rust, Mojo, TypeScript, Docker, and Linux—to projects that blend robust back-end architecture with exceptional front-end design. I'm not just a developer or a designer; I'm a systems thinker, an innovator, and a dedicated builder of tools and communities that empower others.
