ABOUT ME

Life Coach, Trainer, IT Expert and Traveller.

I live with a positive mindset. I enjoy meeting interesting people and jumping into new experiences. I like when people are open and respectful to each other.

We (me and my wife) travel a lot and spend every winter in a different warm places of the world.

I have been in IT field for a really long time. A lot of programming, team management and managing own IT-company.

But now I've shifted towards Professional Coaching. Just because I found that working with people is more valuable for me than working with computers :)

Actually I've hosted people before I knew CS.
But that's formally not a CS experience :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Jumped off the cliff in the ocean...
Saw a sunrise on a mountain :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to explain complex things.

I can do a free coaching session or facititate creative brainstorming process. Or maybe teach some fancy brainstorming techniques.

Of course I can explain something about computers, software development, project management, etc.

I'd like to learn: Spanish Language, playing any music instuments... and any new unusual things :)
