In 2008, I commenced my studies in civil engineering at a prestigious technical university in Ukraine. Four years later, I successfully obtained a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering. Concurrently, my interest in crafting intricate pieces from various materials flourished, leading to practical experience within a family business specializing in high-end custom wooden furniture production. Dedicated to honing my skills, I delved into studying wood characteristics and refining wood technology processing within the workshop.

Fueled by an unwavering attention to detail, a technical mindset, and a resolute approach to problem-solving, I garnered a reputation as a sought-after professional in the custom cabinetry industry in Kyiv where I moved to in 2014. Integrating profound carpentry expertise inherited from my father with innovative insights, I significantly contributed to the companies I collaborated with. My responsibilities encompassed creating drawings for contractors, overseeing production and installation, developing files for CNC machines, and conducting meticulous calculations for metal structures.

My career trajectory within the furniture industry brought me to Austin, TX, where I assumed the role of Lead CAD drafter. Here, I continued to refine my proficiency in AutoCAD and Solidworks, honing the skills initially acquired in Ukraine. Proficient in Ukrainian and Russian, I am dedicated to consistently improving my English and German, a result of my extensive international living and working experiences.
