  • What inspires you about working with tech companies?

    Working with tech companies means being at the forefront of innovation and creativity. It’s exciting to work with founders working in projects that have the potential to impact society positively.

  • Where do you find inspiration in life?

    I find inspiration in the little moments—a good chat with a friend, a nice meal or an interesting conversation.

  • What is your ideal weekend?

    My ideal weekend starts with having dinner at a nice restaurant with my wife, waking up early on Saturday and going out for a long run and meeting up friends for long Mexican-style lunch and a bottle of wine. Add a concert or a listening bar in the evening for the cherry on top.

  • What's the best advice you've ever received?

    Whatever you do, do it with passion.
