Hello Steemit community, I am excited to join and contribute on many different topics starting out with my travel to Lisbon, Portugal this morning. I would first like to thank @adriansky for introducing me to steemit as I begin to share my journey as a professional cinematographer who loves to produce visual content throw my own lens/eyes, currently working for a software company called Appdynamics.
A little biography from my childhood, I was born in Minsk, Belarus and moved to San Francisco when I was 4½ and absolutely love it here
That is me as a baby with my grandmother.
I have witnessed San Francisco transform in the past 25 years spent here which I will create follow up posts in the future touching upon gentrification in San Francisco. I spent my whole life as a teenager K-12 growing up in the Sunset District of San Francisco. While growing up, I developed a love for sports and a passion for film.
Through sports I learned the importance and impact of teamwork which in life can be applied to almost any situation and although I cannot name every single person who has played a roll in shaping my life positively, I would like to say thank you to all the different team players and teams I have had the great humbling opportunity to learn from.
By writing, I hope to learn more about myself. Please feel free to ask a question, add to a conversation so we can all help grow the Steemit community, thanks.
Here are a few photos I would like to share below:
