Some Word About me
know me more
Building, Scaling & Fixing companies.
Telecom, Tech, eCommerce and infrastructure across Europe, MENA, and Asia-Pacific. 17+ years operating in markets where regulatory complexity meets opportunity.
Track record: +150% revenue growth, 45% cost reduction, 95% client retention. I've negotiated with Tier-1 operators, managed multi-market P&Ls, and restructured operations from the ground up. Political science meets engineering discipline.
I read power dynamics, navigate regulatory systems, and understand the cultural mechanics that close deals. Five languages. Three continents. Zero excuses. Currently founding, scaling, and selectively partnering on high-impact ventures.
