About

From an early passion for solving problems through technology to leading strategy and transformation programs for global brands, my journey has been defined by turning bold ideas into measurable results. Born in Bulgaria and having worked across Europe and the U.S., I’ve partnered with Fortune 500, PE-backed, and high-growth tech companies to align innovation with business goals—delivering $20M+ in cost savings, market expansion strategies, and AI-driven operational improvements.

I believe technology is most powerful when it’s embedded into the fabric of a business. I thrive at the intersection of strategy, execution, and emerging tech—whether advising C-suite leaders, designing scalable systems, or mentoring the next generation of innovators. My approach combines analytical rigor, creative thinking, and a global perspective to help organizations solve their most critical business and technology challenges.
