stop and look at the thing
Hi, it’s Vlad Stepanov.
I’m the CEO of Gradarius , a math education company. Previously, I served in various development and management roles at Yandex , the largest tech company in Russia, built several start-ups in the meantime.
This site is meant to be a collection of things that spark my interest, along with some personal notes and thoughts.
I advise you to start here .
I’m always happy to chat about anything, so feel free to reach out via any link from the header.
