Vision

Take meaningful actions that make a real change that is then written in the pages of history

My values

  • Leadership – To be at the forefront of the company and know how to navigate it
  • Teamwork – Every piece of the puzzle is necessary in order for the picture to be clear and work, there is a reciprocal relationship between each piece of the puzzle
  • Dedication – Each morning to realize anew why you do what you do. Keep choosing it even when it is difficult, tiring and not much fun
  • Excellence – Never rest on laurels, always set higher goals and targets. Analyze failures and learn from them
  • Taking a risk – Do not accept everything as facts, challenge things and be open to accept criticism. Dare to tear it all down and rebuild it from scratch

My career story

Even in my youth I loved being surrounded by people and to this day I believe that the success of any organization and as CEO lies in the ability to leave a mark. I connect with people who dare, who are not governed by fear and who think big putting the target in front of them. I am a great believer in teamwork, in giving room for expression and breaking misconceptions. I have vast experience in leading people towards a certain target by providing a personal example.

I find myself getting excited over and over again by influencing and making big changes. The magic happens when you take action and reach revolutionary achievements. My key asset is the winning combination between allegedly two opposing abilities. On the one hand striving for excellence by setting high goals and on the other, containment, listening and accessibility. In addition, autodidactic abilities up to the point of transitioning from field to field thoroughly.

I do not compromise on professionalism, thoroughness and optimism. One of the phrases that always goes with me is that there is no such thing as axioms. I am looking to integrate into a company that achieves great and revolutionary things and thinks outside the box.
