About
I’m a 21 year old front-end web developer, with a passion for creating captivating and user-friendly websites. My journey began with college, personal projects and freelance work, and over the years, I have learned to constantly refine my skills and stay current with the latest technologies. Fluent in both English and Russian, I completed a 4-year diploma in web development at IThub College (Moscow) in June 2023, which has equipped me with a solid foundation in programming languages and best practices. In January I completed a 10-week data analysis bootcamp at Cambridge Spark.
While currently based in Norfolk, UK, I am open to relocation for an opportunity that aligns with my career aspirations. I am excited about joining a forward-thinking team where I can contribute my skills and continue to, embark on continuous learning, and advance in my professional journey. With my dedication and education, I am confident in thriving as a web developer and making a valuable contribution to any team.
