About

I lead global strategy and product initiatives within complex corporate systems, with experience spanning McKinsey, multinational technology and industrial companies, and venture-backed startups in AI and immersive tech. In parallel, I build AI tools that serve life — human growth, children’s imagination, and the connections we’re at risk of losing. I design AI-native systems that augment creativity and cognition, strengthening what’s human rather than replacing it. As a coach, I work with high-achieving professionals navigating the transformation from performance-driven ambition toward deeper alignment with who they actually are. All of it is one mission: creating environments where human potential and technologies ge directed toward what actually matters.
