I have been interested in programming since school. I have studied various programming languages, participated in IT competitions, and was a member of the international robotics and leadership program called FLL (First Lego League). Additionally, I actively engaged in community and youth activities, serving as a member of the youth council and a public organization. I also dedicated my time to volunteer work.

At the beginning of the war, I joined the Ukrainian Cyber Army and participated in cyber attacks on Russian websites, gaining experience in the field of cybersecurity.

On the professional side, I started programming a year ago. I completed two courses on Python and web technologies at the prominent IT company SoftServe. After that, I continued to independently enhance my theoretical knowledge and practical skills.

A few months ago, I came across an initiative on LinkedIn by a young programmer who, like me, had no commercial experience. We gathered several dozen similar beginners, organized ourselves, and created our own "company" called DigitalMindsUA. Our goal is to develop several unique products with the potential to become startups and gain practical experience in coding and team collaboration. Currently, we are working on three products. One of them, which I personally work on, is a platform for novice programmers. On this platform, they can easily find like-minded individuals for their team and start implementing their favorite projects or potential startups. We provide them with necessary tools such as project ideas and templates, chat and Kanban boards, as well as the opportunity to receive feedback from experienced mentors. We are also actively present on LinkedIn, where we spread information about our activities.
