Business should create more than revenue. It should create progress.
I am fascinated by the point where technology, business and people meet. AI is changing how organisations work, but technology alone is rarely the answer. The real opportunity is to understand people, rethink processes, and turn new capabilities into something genuinely useful.
Having built my career across Ukraine and Western Europe, I believe in international collaboration, openness and entrepreneurship as forces for positive change. Norway has become an important part of my life, while Ukraine remains a fundamental part of who I am. Much of what I do today is about building connections between markets, people and opportunities across borders.

Outside work
Curious by default.
I am naturally curious about technology, economics, politics and how societies evolve. I enjoy building things from zero, bringing people together around ideas, and turning ambitious concepts into something tangible.
When I am not working, you will most likely find me swimming, training, travelling, or discovering another part of the Nordics.
