It all started with a burning desire to make my own mobile application for my phone. I didn't know professional development languages, but a solution was found quickly — no-code builders.

Thanks to no-code solutions, I managed to assemble my very first mobile browser. It was a simple but incredibly inspiring achievement that made me keep moving forward.

This year was a turning point. I was gifted a paper book "JavaScript for Kids". I literally got hooked, reproducing programs from the book on my PC.

I started actively studying JS and creating my first own projects. My biggest success of that period was a detailed Bank Simulator built on a combination of JavaScript and Firebase database (which I still often use). It was then that my love for fast reactive stacks began to form.

I realized that good code is nothing without perfect design. During this period, I temporarily reduced programming to dive headfirst into the world of visual art.

I became a true Figma enthusiast, studied the intricacies of UX/UI design, and also got into professional video editing and shooting. This experience taught me to see interfaces through the eyes of an artist, which now helps me create premium-level websites.

The emergence of ChatGPT changed my approach to everything. Since 2023, I not only got interested in LLM models but started constantly testing them in real tasks and continue to do so.

I checked new text models, compared their logic, speed, and code quality, and conducted my own experiments with prompt engineering. During this period, I started developing Minecraft plug-ins in Java and creating my first websites with AI code generators, which back then still worked very clunkily and required millions of manual fixes from me.

AI is now a major part of my workflow. I use it to explore ideas, move through implementation faster, and work across more technologies — while architecture, UX, testing, and final quality stay under my control.

In recent years, I have tested literally almost all popular text models in the world and continue to do so. I actively use other models for video/photo generation, etc.
