About

I am a results-driven manager with over 5 years of experience in team leadership, project coordination, and strategic development across two distinct but complementary sectors: real estate consulting and sports team management. In real estate, I’ve operated as a Senior Property Consultant, managing complex transactions, investor portfolios, and high-stakes negotiations. I’ve worked closely with both corporate and individual clients, helping them identify, evaluate, and secure optimal properties in a competitive market. My strengths lie in market analysis, client relationship management, and strategic advisory. In parallel, I’ve built and led Blue Lock FC, a semi-professional football team featuring 19 former professional players from top European leagues, now competing in the Victory Cup. I’ve handled everything from squad building, tactical strategy, scheduling, and training planning to sponsor engagement and social media operations.
