I'm currently expanding international payment operations at 7waysconsult, where I research e-payment solutions, assess financial feasibility and risks, negotiate with payment partners, and optimize transaction costs.

My work combines payment logistics with financial analysis. I also supported research at HSE's International Laboratory of Individual Entrepreneurship, analyzing crowdfunding, crowd investment, corporate reports, and banking data across Latin America.

I've applied valuation and market-analysis methods in venture capital and banking settings, including startup valuation at H2 Ventures and Forex trading-strategy testing during my BIAT trading room internship.

I'm pursuing an MSc in International Finance at Berlin School of Economics and Law after completing a master's in International Business Operations. I bring multilingual communication skills and hands-on experience with financial modeling, risk analysis, Python, SQL, R, SAP, Power BI, and Refinitiv.
