About Me

Who is Keith Kaska? Well, I am sure that I am one of the most social people you have ever met. I love interacting with people of all walks of life & finding the thing that is remarkable & interesting about each individual. Also, I believe that I am here to connect people & show them that if they are able to establish relationships among one another that this will be the most beneficial thing that they can do. I am a passionate networker & I am actively a member of a very progressive networking community in Prague called BE Project. (see: www.beproject.eu
During & after completing my studies at the University of Pardubice, I worked as an English Teacher in both the private & public sector. 

In 2012, I decided to make a change in my career & soon I began working for Covidien a large healthcare company. I was hired as one of the first members of C2C department that was being migrated from the corporate headquarters in the USA to the Covidien SSC based in Prague. I was involved as an integral member of the migration & subsequent stabilization process.- After the migration was complete I was in charge of the A2R Adjustment processes for the companies largest client in USA, Owens and Minor. At the end of 2013, I moved over to the GL Accounting department where I worked until 2014. 

I decided to leave Covidien after its merger with Medtronic & soon I took on a new position on another migration project at Pfizer. The scope of this project involved migrating the I2C & GL Accounting processes of four markets into a new business model, data integration of these processes to a new ERP platform (SAP) & the streamlined integration of these processes to the Pfizer SSC in Prague. 

Another career change came in 2016 when I decided to utilize my people skills & began working in sales. For more than a year & a half now, I have been working as a Sales Manager for a small but, incredibly cutting edge, Prague-based digital agency called UX Solutions (see: www.uxsolutions.cz). 

Finally, as an entrepreneur I am focused on the realization of  my own project which is a new & innovative, web & app based business concerned with connecting students to expats &/or tourists and providing them with relocation & travel assistance services. The venture is called Europe Friendly (see: www.europefriendly.com) & will first be based in Prague. The project is the first stages of development but, more in depth details regarding the full scope of the project shall be available soon.
