About

I'm a Presidential Scholar of the Government of Uzbekistan — a full-ride, $250,000 award for academic excellence and leadership — pursuing a B.S. in Business at Carlson, majoring in Finance & International Business with a minor in Business Law.

My work sits where rigorous analysis meets real decisions: private credit underwriting, long-horizon equity research, and strategy consulting for Fortune 500 clients.

I work fluently across English, Russian, and Uzbek, and I care most about getting the fundamentals right — the cash flows, the downside, the second-order effects.
