The story of IT-specialist: how does a student earn $2,000 a month?

IT Park continues to share the stories of young professionals who have proven that age is not a hindrance to success.

The hero of today's column is Mirislom Mirabzalov.  He was born and raised in Tashkent.

At school, Mirislom was fond of computer science.  Even then, he realized that he wanted to connect his life with IT.  His love for the subject led him to the Tashkent Professional College of Information Technology, and then to Amity University in Tashkent, where he is now in his 3rd year.

A talented student combines his studies at the university with teaching: currently Mirislom teaches in the “Full stack” direction in the IT Center of Termez and works on 17 projects, joining the residents of IT Park in Surkhandarya region on the basis of the project ADAvzal.uz.

The goal of the young specialist is to help develop the IT-sector of Uzbekistan and transform our country into a global information technology hub, along with other developed countries.

In addition, the direction of freelancing is of great importance for Mirislom.  He is an active member of the well-known Eastern European freelance-exchange FL.ru and has already managed to establish his own company that performs outsourcing orders called “Height” (@Height.company).

Teaching and freelance work bring our hero a good income: at the moment, Mirislom's monthly income is about $2,000.
