Back after 7 years:

I was born in Russia in 1995 and, due to being born without my left arm, was left in the hospital after birth. Luckily, I was placed in an orphanage where I lived for the next couple of years.

I was adopted by a couple that had a daughter of their own and who were looking to adopt their next child. They came across my photo and said “That’s my son!”. Thanksgiving 1997, I was adopted and brought to the U.S.

A few years later, my family discovered that I had a blood sibling, and older sister, who was also put up for adoption. She was 10 years old at the time and unwilling to leave Russia without her younger brother, another blood sibling who was only 3 and in a different orphanage. My parents went through the adoption process again and successfully adopted both, reuniting us all.

Growing up, I took after my Dad in both music and computers. I’ve been fascinated with technology from a young age and even worked in our family’s computer repair business as a teenager. This experience laid the foundation for my continued career in IT. Although I’ve moved on from the family business, my Dad and I still collaborate on various projects.

Music has also been a significant part of my life. My Dad’s side of the family has always been very musical and growing up we had more keyboards than I could count! I started young but it wasn't until I was probaly 8 or 9 that I started to play using my foot on the keys.

In addition to music and technology, I have a passion for film and photography. Recently, I’ve combined these interests by creating videos of my music and starting an interview series with other musicians.
