What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead and scale operations or business units in international, regulated environments, driving governance, growth, digital transformation, AI adoption, and high-performing multicultural teams.

I've established and launched Global Exchange's Romanian operations, leading operational, financial, administrative, regulatory, and corporate governance activities as Local Business Administrator and Legal Representative.

Across 15+ years in international leadership, I've led multicultural teams in financial services, aviation, retail, and project management. At Qatar Airways, I increased sales performance by 30%, reduced inventory by 17%, and improved cash-flow turnover by 25% through pricing, automation, and operational excellence.

I've also reduced procurement costs by 27%, increased productivity by 32%, launched three retail showrooms, and implemented HubSpot CRM. I bring a PhD in Management and Business Administration alongside practical AI strategy, governance, and adoption experience.
