I've been sitting on a chair somewhere in an Bucharest agency for just a bit over 20 years. I used these chairs to truly learn how to listen before I speak and to steal. This type of work relies on models to watch and learn from. Along this time, I figured out the corners and turns of branding & communication architecture, and the subtleties of integration (my fav!).
I've spent more than 13 years in creative management positions (meaning bigger chairs, but not necessarily more comfortable) for both international and local agencies. All this management grind revealed to me a lot of insights needed for finding, defining and shaping my life purpose: being a teacher and a mentor and a changer when it comes to creative industries.
I might know a lot of things but hey! After all these years, I still ask "WHY" quite a few times a day. Got my arms opened for pro-bono work too!
