Regensburg, Bavaria, Germany
If you buy a new Mercedes, or Ford, or Opel, or maybe Audi, there is a big chance that some of the components in those cars have been developed by me. Bringing things into multi-million serial production after designing them from scratch is one of the most exciting things I have done in my life. It is a long process, it is never problem-free, it is big responsibility, it is risky, you could even go to jail as a safety-relevant components releaser, but at the end of the day it is oddly satisfying. Automotive world is not my only passion. I love to learn new things and gain new skills. I buy more Udemy courses than I can complete, I have more open articles than I can read. My area of interests also includes Finance, Investing, Modeling and MedTech. I believe in the power of knowledge and think that the best way to solve problems is to prevent them or at least predict them. I am fascinated by the possibilities modern era offers and I am passionate about leading transformations regardless of whether technology or mindset. I am not afraid to change things. At 17 I became moderator for the biggest MTB forum in Bulgaria with ca. 30 000 users, at 19 I was already co-administrator. I know very well the power of words and from very early age love to take responsibilities. To be responsible also means to give selflessly. As a member of parents’ council at the Bulgarian Sunday School in Regensburg, I am trying to help preserving our mother tongue and culture abroad. Why? Because we shall never rob the treasure of one more way to communicate from our children.
