Small Business Owner
Even if my background is in engineering, I was lucky enough to be able to work in the non-profit sector after college, in Romania. Working with enthusiastic people, for people, was to me more fulfilling than any other role I’ve had, career wise.

Great things are done when a series of small things are brought together. Imagine what it can be when the entire community is brought together.
