About Me

I’m a people person.

I love the happy face of others when we succeed and I want to share the joy of working together. I’m a fan of the terms “respect(ing)” (others) and “empathy”.

I’m a team lead.

As I often take the role as a team lead, I was able to gain experience in organising/planning and decision-making. When it comes to the latter, I always consider the pros and cons carefully after talking to various colleagues and tend to take the safer option as I try to keep an eye on the long-term picture. Still, I want me and my colleagues to achieve something unforgetful and having fun.

I’m a dreamer

I dream of a bright and better future with all its opportunities and where people are working together not caring about gender, colour, origin etc. That’s why I made a platform to connect people with the same visions and ideas: Pronect. After all, we all achieve better when working with the people who strive for the same.

I’m a scientist

Everything I try to achieve is with the goal in mind to create something new or extraordinary and give something back to the society – be it new scientific findings or a novel and unforgettable experience.

I love professionalism

Whether it is a presentation or a project – I take impression and outcome very seriously.

A perfectionist?

People often call me a “perfectionist”, however I prefer a different point of view: I really just take my work very serious while also incorporating efficiency. For me, tasks are part of a constant learning process and I don’t feel satisfied, completing a task just by the bare minimum and without something I could take with me for the future.

I like to exceed expectations
