Deyan Dimitrov is not only a programmer with more than 10 years of experience in the IT sector but he’s also a person with a great sense of humor. He graduated from Technical University Sofia with Computer Science. And since two is better than one, he has Master’s Degree from New Bulgarian University as well. Deyan remembers that he got his first computer at the age of 15, after his father sold their apple-green Wartburg. Just like Grigor Dimitrov whose father bid goodbye to their Lada in order to give his son an opportunity to play tennis.
