My story

The year I stepped back

In 2026 I took a step back from the corporate world and spent a couple of months traveling across Europe, Asia, and North America. I used the time to look at myself up close and understand what truly brings me joy and fulfillment.

Along the way I learned AI and made it part of my daily life, published children's books, and started a stealth startup that I build on the side. Now I am bringing all of it back to the work I love: helping people and teams do their best work.
