Overview
About Me
31, originally from Ukraine, living in London from May 2021. Engineer by training (network technologies), warehouse work for now, transitioning back into IT. I train outdoors year-round — calisthenics, TRX, resistance bands. Drawn to dark cinematic aesthetics, contemporary art, industrial techno (Muslimgauze, 404.zero, I Hate Models). Quiet by default, open in conversation. I take ideas seriously and people lightly

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Rebuilt my daily life from scratch after burning out structured training, nutrition, sleep, meditation, language study, all from zero. The result isn’t impressive on paper but it’s the most amazing thing because it’s mine

Always up to share: a long walk, good coffee, conversation about anything strange
