Born in St. Petersburg, Russia. Spent most of my life in San Francisco, now calling Santa Fe, NM home. I build software, lead small engineering teams, and occasionally outrun my dog on a trail.

About

I'm a software engineer and occasional team lead with experience building consumer-facing products, internal platforms, and client software across companies of all sizes — from scrappy startups to Zillow. I care about code quality, clear communication, and building things people actually want to use.


When I'm not at a keyboard I'm cycling, running with my dog, hunting down live music and art shows, or snacking on pickled herring and rye toast.
