About me
Hi, and welcome to my site!
I have over 17 years of professional experience in manufacturing and operations, where I had the privilege to work with some of the world’s most recognized brands, including Tide, Ariel, Always, and Fairy. Throughout my career, I've built a deep understanding of producing high-quality products, driving innovation, and leading teams to success.
Outside of work, I’m passionate about travel and world history — I’ve explored 33 countries so far and I’m always looking forward to my next adventure.
I’m also a sports enthusiast, with a special love for boxing, which I admire for its discipline and mental strength.
In my free time, you’ll often find me enjoying computer games, where I love diving into new worlds, strategy, and fast-paced action.
Thanks for stopping by — feel free to connect!
