ABOUT ME
As an enthusiastic actor, I have played many roles not only in theater but also in real life as well. I am the engineering student, who created innovative robots and machines. After moving to Germany, my interests shifted from engineering to management. So I studied innovation and development management also worked as a student assistant in a business and engineering consultant company. I'm always looking for challenges that incorporate both fields of technology and social challenges where I can harness my talent and utilize my multidisciplinary knowledge.
