Hey, I'm Ilia!
I am a YC-backed entrepreneur and a world-class expert in Cloud Financial Management (a.k.a. FinOps). Originally from Russia, I now live in San Francisco, USA. As a Silicon Valley startup founder, I’m passionate about innovation and technology. When I’m not working on my next big idea, you can find me doing yoga 🧘♂️ or helping others through advising 🤓 and investing 💰.
Just a few things I’ve been working on lately.
