I'm interested in economics, history, entrepreneurship, and pretty much anything that helps me understand how the world works and why people make the decisions they do.

What I enjoy most is finding connections between seemingly unrelated fields. I can spend hours diving into the history of wars, financial markets, education systems, or the way technology reshapes society. History has always been one of my biggest interests—from Antiquity to the twentieth century—and I want to pursue economics professionally. What fascinates me isn't just memorizing facts but understanding causes and consequences and building my own hypotheses about how things might develop in the future.

I read a lot. Some of the first books that truly captivated me - at a young age there were Jack London's Smoke Bellew and Smoke and Shorty. Later, I became interested in historical memoirs, economics, and popular science. Among the books that influenced me the most are The Black Swan by Nassim Taleb, The Mom Test by Rob Fitzpatrick, the memoirs of Georgy Zhukov and Konstantin Rokossovsky, as well as countless encyclopedias.

Outside of academics, it's important for me to keep trying new things. I love traveling, mountains and mountaineering, museums and art exhibitions, cinema, and theatre. At different points in my life I've practiced drawing, played the synthesizer, participated in a theatre studio, ridden pit bikes, and experimented with plenty of other hobbies. For me, traveling isn't just about seeing new places—it's a way of constantly changing my perspective. I enjoy observing how people live, think, and see the world across different countries and cultures.

Investing and entrepreneurship also play a major role in my life. I enjoy the process itself—looking for opportunities, evaluating risks, testing my own ideas, and watching decisions turn into real outcomes. At the same time, I try not to define myself by achievements alone. It's much more important to me to remain someone who is simply curious about life.

If I had to describe myself in one word, it would probably be curiosity. It's difficult for me to stay within a single field for too long because almost every topic hides something unexpected. That's why I don't like choosing between "humanities" and "STEM," "studying" and "hobbies," or "serious" and "fun." I'd rather explore whatever genuinely interests me at that moment.

I don't know exactly what I'll be doing in ten or twenty years. But I like the fact that, right now, I have the opportunity to try different things, make mistakes, change my mind, and gradually figure out what truly matters to me.
