Background
Git, Ruby, and RSpec have been my main tools since my career began. During the weekends, I'm performing in the playback theatre in Kyiv and other cities of Ukraine.

How to collaborate with Petro
I'm a feedback-driven and context-addicted personality. I write a lot to make sure no essential details are missed. When working on a project, my creativity and ability to find smart workarounds followed by boring solutions can propel it the most. On the other hand, I dislike my unconscious focus on

What does my typical working day look like?
I'm in EET, UTC+2 or EEST, UTC+3 and here are some details:
- 8am - waking up, have a breakfast, walk through social media, sloowly heading out to the office space nearby.
- 9am - starting work-related activities: coffee, emails, chats, charts, etc.
- 1pm or so - lunch and loong walk. Maybe some out-of-work appointments.
Maybe a gym. - 4pm or so - return to work-related activities.
- 8pm - wrap up my day, switching into nonworking mode: coffee, chats, art, volunteering. Heading out from the office space with no connection unless production incident.
A note #1: I tend to practice late stays and over-the-weekend learning activities. It may look a bit unhealthy... but it is definitely not for my current life stage
A note #2: I tend to be overexcited on some mornings and propose crazy things in slack or elsewhere. Bear with me or make a short DM with your thoughts. Simple YES/NO questions are the most valuable
A note #0: I'm working on establishing better #workwarbalance habits atm. Check my progress on the board
