I grew up in Moscow, Russia, where I went to school and university, and worked for a number of banks and investment companies. IT has always been my passion, and eventually I moved away from finance and into bits and bytes. I lived in Laos for almost 10 years where I ran my own computer company building websites and developing web applications. My family and I moved to Hong Kong in 2009. My wife is an art teacher here at DC, and both our boys are attending the school now too. I am a passionate ColdFusion developer and hope to put my experience and knowledge to good use as IT Specialist / DBA at Discovery College.
