About
Svetoslav

I am a highly capable results-oriented engineer with 6+ years experience in application development & system administration roles. I have a detail-oriented eye for DevOps/QA principles & Cybersecurity. Besides the regular work, I participate whenever possible in voluntary project-based activities from software translation (localization for the Joomla CMS community) to API, security, functional, load, performance & i18n testing since 2008.

I love creating a culture of continuous improvement & operational excellence, while enjoying solving complex problems with creative technical solutions.

Blockchain, hiking, paper art poetry (Quilling), participating in Classic car events is just a short list of what I am involved in my spare time.

Bulgarian Shevitsa -
an Artistic Odyssey from color to melody

The idea of the book is to contain the history, the meaning of the symbols and colors behind the Bulgarian Shevitsa embroidery as well as its application through various creative techniques. It is a practical guide to creating such ornaments through quilling, painting by numbers and music based on the created image. Get ready to have fun and create positive emotions, memories with children, adults and everyone else in between.
