Hi, I'm Tima. Creator who builds.

I started in film directing — living through stories, feelings, imagination. Then at 33, something switched. I got tired of having ideas and not being able to ship them myself. I taught myself product, operations, systems, and sales — everything needed to turn ideas into something real.

I'm a generalist by nature. Film to sales to ops to product wasn't me jumping around — it was me getting closer to the full system. Now I build: apps, AI automations, websites, music (10 albums in two months with AI). To me, work is creating artifacts: experiments, products, artwork. Not everything has to be monetary, but it should be beautiful to make and useful to someone.

I'm Ukrainian. I moved to the US after the Maidan revolution and rebuilt from zero. That's why ambiguity feels normal to me.

I'm not a smooth talker in English. I make situations awkward and I'm still figuring out why. But I'm relentlessly capable, obsessively curious, and I don't stop until it's real.

I replaced social media scrolling with bullet chess. That probably explains how my brain works.

Principles, for now:
Less interfaces, more outcomes.
Embarrassment is underexplored — go make a fool of yourself.

My life's been quite the adventure — some parts might shock you. Read the full story →
