Karina Popova - Welcome to My Personal Website

MY TIME

What makes my WORLD unique.

EXPLORE THE SINGULARITY OF MY SPORTS CHALLENGE

When I first started thinking about the sport some years ago, I had no idea how much it would take over my life. In this section I propagate the set of simple motivating presentations of weekly training that has individual and personal relevance to everyone who wants to live to 100. I hope my simple lifestyle steps could help you get there.

ENJOY THE BLESSEDNESS OF MY READING LIFE

I like to read everywhere and I totally passion about sleepless nights with Books. This section is about what I’m reading and what I want to read and what should I read next (any suggestions are welcome). I read mostly e-books because of my busy travelling schedule. But I also have a strange fascination with true print things.

EXPERIENCE THE RICHNESS OF MY FOOD SOLUTIONS

Cooking and preparing a food always give me a pleasure and satisfaction. In this section I will talk not only about routine eating habits, but also about my practice with recipes and products from international cuisine. Sometimes, in the process of preparing the food, I get new experiences unexpectedly or learn interesting tricks.

DISCOVER THE EXCITEMENT OF MY TRAVEL JOURNAL

I have a huge “box of surprises”, from simple travelogues to budget ideas for road trips and events. In this section you can find information about all my travel experience and future plans. You will see the details for my upcoming, past or even cancelled trips — including dates, destinations, flights, accomodation and personal photo galleries.

ABOUT KARINA

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. But, in practice, there is.

Success nullifies. You then have to do it again, preferably differently.

I would like to explain why I have decided to share my personal life style. There are so many different networks around us. Often we do not use them in a right way. What I have learned during my life: Internet is just an instrument for my success, and I would like to stick to this philosophy.

Having completed my two outstanding MSc in "Advance Informatics in Economics" and "Geospatial Technologies" with the help of different scholarships and excellent grades, I can also personally attest to the wide range of study opportunities.

I have been an international Developer - Economist - Evangelist for the last 11 years. My level of professional knowledge allowed me to be a perpetual traveler, attend hundreds of IT-related events, meet thousands of great people and easily move between ten cities.

My wide programming focus are object-oriented languages, database technology and front end development. I am passionate about my work, reading classics, writing psycological dramas, speaking at IT events and being lost in statistical analysis. I concentrate on all aspects related to new technologies and features for the development of algorithms in purpose of business intelligence and decision making process.

Praise, encouragement and kind words are an essential part of our everyday communication across all ages

Karina Popova was my student at the New University of Lisbon geospatial graduate program. Admission to the program is strongly competitive, and all students are expected to perform at an advanced level. Bringing a tremendous amount of technical and policy expertise to her studies, Karina consistently exceeded those high expectations. In fact, I invited her to co-present some of her classroom work for a keynote speech I gave at an international conference. Karina is intelligent, personable, and hardworking, and I expect her to become a professional leader in integrating geospatial techniques with public policy/economic modeling.

Alan Glennon

PhD, Cofounder, Arogi

Karina has the ability to conduct analysis and make an expert conclusion. She has a very broad vision, a high level of education. She is able to quickly evaluate many areas of business. I know her by her work as an economist-engineer in the state organizations of very high rank and successful commercial structures, where she showed her ability to produce the result in a short time as multi-tasking. Karina is well versed in matters of accounting for investments in the budgetary sphere at the regional and Federal level. Professionalism, honesty and scrupulosity is one of the main qualities of Karina.

Her research interests in the GIS domain concentrate around data analytics, geospatial social data, crowd sourcing with application areas in political, governance issues. Karina has also worked as a public officer and a consultant. She is a very well related individual, very diligent, organized and a deadline complier.
