10/2021- 10/2022
As a risk taker, a couple of decisions made me leave my 9 years former job. No planning, no next step, for first time in my life! I decided to focus only on recharging batteries, mental and physical health. After some time in a high time-consuming position such as the CUO, could not just relax. So, while enjoying some personal time, I opened a couple of companies and started doing something aside insurance for a change.
