About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Let there be music!

ABOUT ME

I eat information, consume oxygen and produce jokes and little guitar tunes.I am tall and wear conquistador-style beard. Once I met with Jonh Malkovich (in Odessa) and offered him champagne. Obviously, re refused. I wear money in a front pocket of my shirt.My wife Natasha has green eyes and likes travelling and dogs. If she could she would come to every lake or every wood or mountain on Earth to keep connection with nature.

PHILOSOPHY

All you need is love.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once myself and Natalie took part in Bolywood movie. It did come out, so we are sort of Indian stars now!))

Teach, Learn, Share

What I can teach? I can give you few piano lessons (child-style). Also I can teach you my special self-invented dinosaur dance (requires few shots of tequilla and party hat).

But more seriously, I'm not a teaching kind. I love learning and want to know practically everything. That's why I sometimes end up finding myself doing a three-hour research on ancient mayans clothing instead of working.

My girlfriend Natalie can share a few recipies and specializes in hand-made crafts.
