During my degree I was member and team-leader of ACM team.

In the 3rd years at University, we opened organization, where we helped freshmen students with challengeable courses like Algorithms & Data Structures, C++ and Java.

Theme of my diploma work was about classification and detection biologica cells, to predict diabet using human saliva. To solve that problem we had a group of specialists from two universities. My job was to make research ability to use fuzzy logic algorithms on cell images and create desktop Java application for doctors.

A Little More About Me

When I am not programming, I prefer to jogging, read science fiction books (my favourite is Dune), climb to mountain, cycle bike and Jiu Jitsu.

In the last few years, I use a lot of microservcies arhitecture, creating new one and migrating from old legacy codebase. But, microservices architecture is not aim, I always try to choose the right tool for the project depending on the business needs. Also prefer Amazon’s slogan - if you build it, you run it. Always try to create CI/CD pipeline for my services.

For my pet projects I would like to use PHP and Python programming languages, for scripting and making prototypes.

Before starting coding, I prefer to draw system design using UML. It is cheaper to make changes in diagrams, rather than in code base.

And I believe that, simplicity is a key. Because it is easy to make complicated systems, but it is hard to make straightforward systems.
