Happy to be part of MeaWallet team, ideas, and culture! For the first time in my life I call myself a Project manager. I have huge experience working and managing different kind of projects, but this time it is for real :) And I'm really enjoying that. I feel that I'm in the right company, between the right people, doing the right things. Since I started to work here I have been on the skis for the first time in my life. I even started to sing in a choir. This company does real magic to me. You definitely should read more on what we are doing here (even if it sounds too complicated at first sight:)) https://www.meawallet.com/ !

I love to challenge myself as an instructor. I'm giving the trainings once in two months. This is an opportunity for me to step aside my main job responsibilities, learn something new and meet all the great people that come to my classes. I'm business analyst in the heart. Always curious, willing to figure out the reasons, motivation and recommend the best approach to solve things. I am into business analysis for around 15 years now. Lot of this time was spent learning by own experience and mistakes, reading other experience stories, trying and failing, trying and succeeding the new techniques and approaches. I am so grateful that I have had so many inspiring people around me during this journey who challenged me, who supported me, and who appreciated me. Together we have done few business analysis conferences, lots of meetups, lots of business analysis fun staff, joy. We definitely have made the local business analysis community stronger, bigger and self-confident.
