Why did you choose webportalis?

I chose webportalis because I was impressed by the open and honest exchange on equal footing during the application process.

This positive dynamic makes working here truly special.

Which values are important to you in both your professional and personal life?

In my personal life, I am a reflective person and always make sure to keep my values and goals in mind. A conscious and balanced approach to myself is essential, as it helps build strong character. I bring this mindset into my professional life as well. With the ambition to improve a little every day, I have already achieved many of my career goals. Honesty and empathy are my top priorities—both in teamwork and in interactions with clients.

How do you handle stressful situations at work?

I consider myself a true "problem solver." In stressful moments, I take a deep breath and stay calm—after all, strength lies in composure. This approach allows me to find solutions quickly and make better decisions. While I set high goals for myself, I also accept when I don't always reach them. What matters most to me is knowing that I gave my best. This mindset has helped me become a very balanced person over the past few years.

What role does sports or physical activity play in your life?

I played football in a club for over ten years and owe a lot to this sport. The friendships I built on the field were particularly valuable. Today, movement is still an essential part of my life. I often go for long runs to reflect on my day, set new goals, and check in with myself. This routine has become a key part of my daily life over the past two years.

Which book, series, or podcast has recently inspired you?

I prefer audiobooks because they fit seamlessly into my daily routine. The last audiobook that truly inspired me was The Café on the Edge of the World. It changed my perspective and reminded me to be grateful for things that many take for granted.

What do you hope to achieve in the coming years, both professionally and personally?

Above all, I want my work to benefit both my colleagues and other people before focusing on my own gain. I am motivated by creating real value and supporting others. At the same time, I strive for continuous growth—both professionally and personally. I want to develop my skills further and stay open to new challenges and perspectives. I believe that an environment built on openness and collaboration is key to achieving this.
