I graduated with honors from Belarusian State University, Minsk (Belarus). In 2003, I received my doctoral degree from Otto-von-Guericke University of Magdeburg (Germany).
Following my PhD, I held several postdoctoral research positions at leading European institutions, including the University of Warsaw (Poland), Kiel University (Germany), the University of Southern Denmark in Odense (Denmark), and Imperial College London (United Kingdom).
I am currently a University Lecturer and Docent in Applied Mathematics and Optimization at the Department of Mathematics and Statistics, University of Turku (Finland).
