Learn. Dream. Work with joy. Play music. Love people. Love life. I am a person who creates his own “edge effect”, the point of intersection — which resonated with me… As a economist, historian and musician, I’ve been looking for opportunities to have my several varied backgrounds come together…” I have a strong desire to make good thoughts and ideas known to the world. I am vegetarian, lovely husband and father of two boys.

musicology, ethnic music, percussion and frame drumming. I play different rear music instruments: Zaporozhye cossacks tulumbas, ukrainian bubon, drymba, trembyta, topshur.

I believe in “Edge Effect” (like Yo-Yo Ma). The "Edge Effect": The Place Where Innovation Happens. I do apply this concept to the local community, saying that in order to continue to live in the modern city, we have to push toward our own edges. We need to meet the other ideas/visions/inventions and allow ourselves to influence (and be influenced by) our surroundings. And actually, we have to address the three engines of our society- the political, economic, and cultural engines-and overlap wherever we can. I want to inspire people and show that everything starts as a dream. But we need to put a lot of focus and energy into the dream and transform it into reality. -Collaboration-This is № 1 trait for every person. -Innovation. Those who learn to innovate will prosper in a global economy. In addition to traditional academic knowledge and the ability to apply that knowledge in the real world, all We need “broader competencies( including) Creativity and intellectual Flexibility"
