Profile

I work in Commercial Operations at ESL FACEIT Group, across two teams. Together with colleagues from sales, product and project management, I coordinate the pre-sales work on sponsorship pitches, from packages and pricing to the materials our sellers take to clients. I also look after the unit's revenue and cost forecasts and help prepare the insights and presentations our leadership works with. What I enjoy most is a problem that keeps coming back: stepping back, finding the pattern, and working with the people involved on a process that fixes it for good. I also build software with AI, in my free time and more and more at work.

Principles

  1. Solve it once. A problem that keeps coming back is a process problem.

  2. Fix the process, not the people. Nobody should have to repair what isn't theirs to own.

  3. Abstract before acting. Name the pattern first, then build the fix.

  4. Say it plainly. Strong opinions, argued in the open, changed by better evidence.

  5. Use the best tools available. Today that means AI, every day.
