Economist by training, philosopher by vocation, in his words, “worked in the corporate world, worked in the startup world, sat on the boards, sat on the beach, was employed, was self-employed, was a venture capitalist, was an ‘adventure’ capitalist,” while his passion towards physics and philosophy slowly but surely was brewing in the background. Born and raised in Russia, Alex Vikoulov was growing up a gifted child so much so that his parents transferred him to a lycée with advanced math and foreign language programs. He studied humanities at Tomsk State University and had his first entrepreneurship experience by running Sibmarket Financial, among the first hedge funds in Russia. He immigrated to the United States in 1994 at the age of 24, continued his studies in the U.S. where he graduated in 1999 from Armstrong University with degrees in finance and economics.

From 2001 to 2005, managed the San Francisco office of First Data Corp., the largest payment processor in the U.S. From 1999 to 2001, he held a consultant position with Prudential Securities, Inc.
