He grew up surrounded by the world of wood: his parents worked in the industry, and there was a factory near his home. He became familiar with the craft from childhood and, at 16 or 17, officially began working as a cabinetmaker, doing a bit of everything: painting, furniture assembly, and finishing.
With his accumulated experience, he decided to create his own business, focused on polishing and painting. Later, to respond to contemporary market trends, he formed a company specializing in lacquering and gold leaf application.
