My background is in the fast-paced finance sector

and I understand perfectly well the thrills but also the struggles of a demanding career. I worked internationally at two major European banks, going through all the ranks, from intern to head of my team. I experienced successes such as leading major transactions with prominent clients and setting up a team from scratch. I also experienced times of doubt, overwhelm and failures, all of which have helped me in hindsight to develop more resilience and wisdom and become the person I am today. Whilst my career has been and always will be important to me, I have developed strategies to balance work with other equally important areas of my life such as my personal relationships, my health and my hobbies.
