About

Environmental Engineer focusing on renewable energy⚡. Graduate of the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). I’ve worked across floating wind energy research and connecting renewable energy developers with global investors — bridging innovation with real-world impact. Today, I’m building Tsarknias Renewables, where we develop, construct, and maintain solar PV and hydropower projects — turning nature’s power into clean energy.
