About

I build HR that makes businesses stronger and people happier. With over 12 years in HR, I’ve helped Pinely, ManyChat, and other best companies grow, scale, and create cultures where people thrive. My expertise spans HR strategy, leadership development, and talent management, with deep experience in HFT, and IT Product companies. I believe that HR is more than policies and processes—it’s about building teams that drive innovation, fostering leadership that inspires, and creating workplaces where people do their best work. I enjoy structuring HR for fast-growing companies, helping businesses attract and retain top talent, and ensuring that culture is a competitive advantage. I’m always happy to exchange ideas, discuss trends in HR and talent management, or just connect with like-minded professionals. Whether you’re in HFT, tech, or a fast-scaling company, feel free to reach out—let’s connect!
