My Story


I have joined the KAUST Ph.D. Computer Science program at CEMSE and prof. Peter Richtarik Optimization and Machine Learning Lab.


I hold a Master’s Degree in Computer Science from Bauman Moscow State Technical University (BMSTU), Russia.

After graduating from BMSTU, I worked in several prominent companies, such as Huawei, NVIDIA, Yandex, and Acronis.

After spending time in industry I have backed into academia. I have joined KAUST in August 2020 as a Ph.D. candidate and member of Professor Peter Richtarik’s Optimization and Machine Learning Lab.

During my coming to KAUST I obtained a financial add-on to the KAUST Fellowship, given to a few of the best incoming students by the Dean.
