About Me

From childhood I had been preparing to become professional french horn player (musician) , but due to different, mostly economical factors switched to economics after 10 years of studying music (from 5 till 15 y|o).

I've graduated from economical university and in parallel have started own business. It wasn't really successful, but It gave me a good understanding of what not to do.

Now, together with my business partners, I have working business with 60 employees - project sales of furniture for offices, retail and automotive markets.

Divorced, have a 13 old son
