I lead programmes, manage people and budgets, work on policies, strategise, plan content, design, and improve workflows. I believe growth happens where curiosity meets action.
Driven by curiosity and a love for design, I blend creativity with clarity — turning ideas into bold, engaging visuals. I craft experiences that make people think, feel, and connect.
I thrive where ideas turn into action. I’m the kind of person who sees a problem and immediately starts sketching solutions—whether it’s a campaign, a concept, or a creative project. I don’t believe in waiting for opportunities; I create them. If I want to understand something, I don’t just read about it—I test it, build it, and refine it through experience. I operate with a mix of strategy and instinct, always balancing logic with creativity. I value depth over surface-level success, clarity over noise, and progress over perfection. To me, growth isn’t just about working harder but working smarter—challenging assumptions, taking risks, and never settling for “good enough.”
I grew up in Bydgoszcz, Poland, where my first passions were rooted in technology. Internships, certifications, and school exchanges gave me my first taste of the corporate world. But somewhere along the way, my curiosity shifted—from how systems work to how people think. That’s where psychology took hold.
Moving to Nottingham, UK, for university was more than just a change of location. It was a shift in mindset—one that taught me independence, resilience, and the value of pursuing more than what’s set in front of you. Studying psychology wasn’t just about academics; it was about applying what I learned to the world around me.
That mindset shaped everything I’ve done since. I launched a blog to explore how psychology shapes workplace environments. I designed campaigns, digital assets, and wellbeing initiatives that didn’t just tick boxes but made an impact. I started a YouTube channel—not for the views, but as a creative space to explore ideas that matter.
For me, it’s not just about what you achieve—it’s about how you grow, what you create, and the difference you leave behind.
