What I read

Dale Carnegie's 'how to win friends and influence people' absolutely changed my life, as did 'Reinventing Organisations' by Frederic LaLoux. Right now I am also revisiting classics such as Hemingway and Voltaire.

Side projects

I'm the type of person that always has a side project, be it something as simple as live-streaming, or more complex such as designing a new product.

Ideal team

I strive to be as adaptable as possible to a variety of management styles, team sizes and dynamics. I tend to thrive in smaller teams and operate with a high level of autonomy.
