Biography

From a young age, I have been deeply passionate about mathematics, physics, and solving complex problems. My educational journey began at the Physical-Technical Lyceum, followed by a Bachelor's degree in Biophysics from the Faculty of Physics at Saint Petersburg State University (SPbGU). My undergraduate thesis focused on the conformations of argiotoxins. I then pursued a Master's degree in Cognitive Studies at SPbGU, graduating with distinction. My Master's thesis explored MRI studies of conscious false actions. I conducted research in the field of nanophotonics at Alferov University.

Throughout my life, I have switched research areas several times, driven by my desire to engage in subjects that intrigue me. As I matured, I realized the importance of addressing not only intriguing theoretical problems but also practical ones. This led me to an internship at a metallurgical enterprise. Since the age of 12, I have been a dedicated eco-activist and volunteer, and I hope to contribute meaningfully in this field.

Since 2022, I have been studying and working at Lappeenranta-Lahti University of Technology. In recent years, I have focused on developing my skills in programming, artificial intelligence, and other emerging technologies that expand the capabilities of modern researchers. My dream is to eliminate the garbage continents in the ocean. I am an admirer of Brodsky and Kaurismäki (both of them).
