Fractional CTO · AI Transformation · 20 Years in Tech

I like research, I like learning and I like difficult problems. My thinking is creative and analytical. An objective perspective supported by curiosity about how things work makes me an excellent troubleshooter. Complexity is, to me, a welcome challenge, and I'm capable of taking a problem apart, analysing it, and coming up with an innovative solution.

My career in tech started back in 2005 as a Web Designer at Neogen, a multinational company based in Romania. It was an exciting time to be part of a company at the forefront of the online industry. Obsessed with details and end results, I transitioned to web development in my later years there. UX was in its early stages; I didn't even know about it then. Called it common sense, but I had a feeling there must be more to Web Design than aesthetics.

Driven by a desire to create experiences that went beyond visuals and tapped into something more meaningful and human-centric, started a new chapter in 2010 and joined Granite, now Ireland's leading Digital Agency. Over 13+ years, I've had the privilege to work with diverse clients, from small companies to multi-billion global corporations, always focusing on aligning technology with people, culture, and business objectives.

Throughout my journey, explored various projects with curiosity. In 2011, founded an educational platform that helped hundreds of thousands get their driving license. In 2018, I learned the startup lesson with Contazen, a software bridging accountants and SMEs. I also helped grow Aromateria from zero to hero.

Today, I help businesses navigate AI adoption strategically. As a Fractional CTO, I guide companies through technology and AI transformation with practical strategy aligned to business needs. I've worked with diverse teams across cultures and industries, always with one focus: technology serves a purpose, it's not the purpose itself.

We start with intention; what problem are we solving and why. Then comes execution that aligns technology with people, organizational culture, processes, and business goals. Strategy is the path you're taking to advance your values in the world.

By day, I help businesses turn AI into a real competitive advantage. At night, when skies are clear, I practice astronomy and astrophotography. Check out my work here.
