About Me

Originally from Greece and living in London.

Am currently building my own financial technology startup, and am passionate about digital and big data innovation.
Also, big advocate of human rights, one of the first board members of a charity fighting against sexual abuse.

Love adventure, art, writing poems and extreme sports as well, such as Bungee Jumping.
Equally drawn to museums and local traditional spots, as to partying and adrenaline-pumping activities.

If you are up for cooking some traditional Greek meal and hanging out while exploring the world, be in touch.
