Aleksandr Linnikov Email & Phone Number

I was born in a small village in Krasnodar region. As there was actually not much to do I got interested in computers. No, not computer games as you might have thought but rather in its 'inner organs': hardware, software and other stuff like that. And that's thanks to my mom. She showed me how to deal with some programs and at the age of 9 I assembled my first PC. I should say I'm still very proud of this achievement :)When I turned 13 I was determined to leave for Moscow. The reason? The same as I've already mentioned — there was not much to do in my village and I wanted more. So I entered NRNU MEPhI and moved to Moscow. At first, it was not quite easy as in the middle school I got used to be the first without making any big efforts (I'm not boasting actually, just stating the facts :) Here, in Moscow, I had to work hard to get the results. But thank god I understood this and learnt to learn very quickly. So, yes, I'm still a quick learner. That's one of the skills that helps me up to now.Why data analyst?1. I really love numbers and what's behind them — I mean not only the real money my company earns but also the satisfaction of our clients.2. I enjoy solving difficult tasks like when you don't even know where to start and I'm really good at it.3. I have the opportunity to improve my company's results by analyzing the numbers and changing them for the better. So I suppose I may proudly identify myself as a lord of digits :)What about my perspectives?I see myself as a head of a really cool and serious data-driven company which will be able to make this world a little better and the people around a little happier no matter how lofty it may sound :)
