I live in sunny Kuala Lumpur for the past 13 years with my wife and little son.

I grew up in Kazakhstan and spent much of my early life there. My background is in computer science and multimedia. I started my design career at early-stage startups and small-to-medium enterprises, often as the sole designer wearing many different hats. I was learning a lot since, taking courses from Wharton (University of Pennsilvania), CalArts and Interaction Design Foundation.

Outside of work, I spend most of my time with my family and staying active through various sports, while trying (and often failing) to keep my other hobbies alive. I enjoy digging into random tech and overanalyzing movies and discussing about them.

My principle is to design software with a soul and websites worth wandering. I like to explore the boundaries of product design, brand design, and prototyping with one question in mind: how would this make people feel?
