Summary

I’m someone who sees beyond processes and numbers; for me, people and how we work together are the key to achieving good and sustainable results. I like to make data-driven decisions, but I never forget that every team has different needs and emotions. I adapt quickly, always look for practical solutions, and try to inspire people to give their best—while remembering that it’s important to be well, not just perform.
