About me

Motivated by projects led by interesting business ideas. Prefer being a business partner rather than just getting a work done. I appreciate working together, achieving common goals as well as building a strong team and developing talents. On the other side I’m self-responsible and sometimes enjoy the ability to concentrate on a task alone. Communication skills and conflict management are often highlighted by my colleagues and directs.

I believe that developers, should always be on top of new technologies, but implement them for a reason.
