Why have you decided to join AUCA Alumni Council?
To give back to my university and make sure that it will continue to be a home of great people aiming to build a better Kyrgyzstan. I believe the AUCA is one of very few schools in Central Asia committed to inspire and give its students opportunities to achieve their goals.
What motivates you in your life both personal and professional?
Limitless curiosity and unconditional belief that I can achieve whatever I think is possible.
As a member of the AUCA Alumni Council, how do you see the role of alumni in supporting AUCA?
AUCA became a second home to many people, including me and that's why I believe that every alumni should take care of their home by any means possible. I mean there is countless ways to support it, be it volunteering, cheering at the events, donating, helping their fellow alumni to find a job, and so on.
What role did AUCA play in your life?
In addition to a great education that is possible to get in the region, AUCA became a place where I found my friends and even my first real job.
What would you say to the AUCA alumni if you were to address them in a speech?
Never back down in the face of challenges and do your best to support those who believed in you and shaped you as a person. Also, make sure that you stay connected with the AUCA because it will continue to be your home even when you get old and grumpy.
