I was born in 1980 in St.Petersburg, Russia and used to have purely humanitarian educational background. I graduated from a secondary school that specialized in English and awterwards got a diploma of English interpreter. However, in 2002 I graduated from St.Petersburg State University, having taken a five year course of Economic Cybernetics at the department that once emerged due to Leonid Kantorovich. The exact title of my specialization is "Mathematical methods and operations' research in economics". My research interests include the fields that do not blend with mainstream economic theory, they are evolutionary economics and application of fractals and non-linear dynamics to financial markets' analysis.
