I went to a special English school (thanks to my mom) where foreign languages were studied for 9 years as opposed to 6 years in regular schools. Since I was 4 years old I was crazy about railways and that changed my life a lot. As a 5-th grade student I began working at the Kid's Railway which is a real-size, fully functional model of the railroad, operated by 5th-to10-th grade kids supervised by adults. I went the whole way from the conductor to the locomotive driver. 
 
  After I graduated from the high school I was admitted to the Telecommunications College at Transportation University. After the first year I went for 2 years military service in the Air Forces and then continued my school. Through all my college years I was working on the train. That was a special train, owned and operated by my University and those who happened to travel between two Russia's capitals might have taken it. Along with the Telecommunications major I earned minor degree in Journalism and right after the graduation I was working with my friends on the radio. 

   In 1994 my family moved to USA. My first job in this country was a service technician for the fitness equipment. I still work for the same company but as a service manager assistant. My job usually requires a lot of driving and many other skills. 

   Since 1995 I'm a Computer Science graduate student at Binghamton University . My area of interests is networking and multimedia as a part of it. And that's the field I'm looking for a job now.
