Aston Business School graduate. I have a passion for business, entrepreneurship, and sustainable and ethical living. Born in Albania and having lived and studied in Malaysia, I have a substantial international exposure given that I am currently living and settled in the UK. I have a background in Business and IT, and I am enthusiastic about all things tech. I believe that technology is the underlying solution to many of humanity’s problems if used ethically and mindfully. My strong entrepreneurial capabilities allowed me to co-create my company (2019), Archean Projects, a crowdfunding platform focused on sustainable, green businesses/projects. I am an intelligent generalist, highly organised, detail-oriented, and intellectually curious. Outgoing individual with over five years of experience in the hospitality and tourism industry. A Finance and Operations Executive since December 2019.
