In the past, I was at the very origin of the Mendeleev bar and after 2 years of work I led a team of talented bartendeders.

I'm also the founder and host of the #Gastropair channel (miniatures on a combination of simple food and drinks that guests of the program prepare with me). Currently, I'm the managing partner at "The Nest" bar and the director of the F&B in the international chess club from World Chess company, with which I launched a pop-up bar during the candidate tournament in March 2018 in Berlin and another pop-up bar at the World Chess Championship Match in November 2018 in London.
