The story of me ;-)
It was 1984 when I was born in Gomel (it is a former USSR city ;-). I spent all my school years in Gomel where I now continue living and working for Add-in Express. I have two higher educations:
- Belarusian State University of Information Science and Radio Electronics: Computer System and Networks department (I am a mathematician-system programmer, have a Master's Degree in Information Science); 2002-2007 – Minsk
- Belarusian Trade Economics University: Business Education Department (I am also an economist-manager, have a Master's Degree in Economics and Management); 2007-2010 - Gomel
It was 2006 when I came to Add-in Express for the first time. I combined my last student year with a part-time job mostly involved in researching possibilities for creating new products. In 2007 after I graduated from BSUIR I joined the Add-in Express team. Nowadays I continue working for Add-in Express mostly as a technical support engineer helping our customers with their projects. Also my current job involves a lot of programming, testing and debugging, mainly in .net.
