My professional journey has been marked by a commitment to fostering positive change and strategizing for success.Born in the small town of Paide, Estonia, I conceptualised a business at the age of 15 with the ambitious goal of ensuring its longevity for 2000 years. In 2015, I served in the Logistics Battalion, refining my discipline, problem-solving, and leadership skills. I then studied Public Relations at Tallinn University (thesis unfinished) and gained sales, marketing and organisational leadership experience across the EU and US from 2017 to 2020.In 2018, I furthered my financial sector expertise working with institutions like LHV and Compensa Vienna Insurance Group SE, solidifying my financial sector expertise.In 2020, I established QLA with a visionary mission to merge tradition with innovation to redefine the landscape of financial & business services.QLA, a comprehensive financial consulting firm, is dedicated to assisting businesses, institutions, individuals, and families in Europe, and worldwide to foster growth and safeguard their interests.We advise leaders of businesses on their most important financial and strategic matters, serving as a trusted advisor whose sole mission is to ensure the best result for the clients. We understand that our clients’ success is our success. We go above and beyond to exceed our clients’ expectations. Today, I proudly hold roles as a founder and CEO across the QLA entities. I find fulfillment in guiding people towards exceptional results, expressing a passion for leadership, investing, physical fitness, literature, and the daily pursuit of personal challenges, all within the bounds of legal and ethical standards.
