My Story

Hi! I'm Alex Ivanov, an entrepreneur who owns and operates an ecommerce business, with a BS and MS in Computer Engineering. My passion lies in building innovative solutions that solve real-world problems, and I've always created tools for myself and my business to streamline operations and drive growth.

I love learning how to use AI and am currently working on developing agents to automate tasks and enhance our virtual assistants' capabilities. With the introduction of modern coding tools like Cursor, building with new technologies has become both fun and accessible, opening up endless possibilities for innovation.

I take every opportunity to join other builders in hackathons to build interesting things and put my ideas into the world. These events are a chance to step away from work and life, and I've enjoyed adding confidence to my ability to ship code, collaborate with diverse teams, and effectively demo my work. Each hackathon teaches me something new and pushes the boundaries of what's possible.
