Summary
I firmly believe that the tech world is undergoing a massive transformation, and we're on the brink of a complete restart", where conventional processes, mindsets, and thinking won't be enough to tackle the emerging challenges. That was my motivation to make a sabbatical break, where I visited 11 different countries in Asia, where I had the privilege of connecting and working with tech entrepreneurs, investors, and innovative product builders. This extraordinary experience pushed me to think differently, to practice creative problem solving and to find simple solutions to various problems. Armed with this wealth of experience and a new perspective, I'm here to transfer this gathered knowledge to companies and entrepreneurs. I excel at pinpointing real-life problems, iterating ideas, and crafting meaningful, impactful products that make a difference in today's rapidly changing world.
