What we can work on

Feedback and hard conversations

Prepare a tough talk and turn criticism into real change.

Leading people in tech

A new manager role, a team conflict, or a team stuck between business and IT.

Career change

Leaving corporate, a layoff or a new direction: your options and a first step.

Personal coaching

Whatever is on your mind. No need to have it sorted first.

Finances, Semi-FIRE and family safety

A simple money system, a red folder, insurance and a will. More below.

Learning languages

Learning that survives a normal week, so you actually start speaking.

Five levels of receiving feedback

A model I built from years of watching people receive feedback, including myself. Most trainings stop at level 3. The change happens at level 4.

  1. No reactionThe least safe: nobody knows what landed.
  2. Explaining yourselfDefending the decision instead of hearing the point.
  3. CounterattackTurning the feedback back on the giver.
  4. Saying thank youPolite, and where most trainings stop.
  5. Asking what you could do differentlyThe only level that actually changes something.

Semi-FIRE: when work becomes a choice

Semi-FIRE means your investments cover most of your living costs, so work becomes a choice.

I didn't start wisely: trading cost me my savings, and I needed outside help to stop. The plan that followed rebuilt the losses and got me here in about five years.

In sessions I share the method, not a product.

  • See your money clearly

    A simple budget system on your own computer, not ten paid apps.

  • A goal with a date

    How much is enough for you, and when you'll get there.

  • A family safety net

    A red folder, insurance and a will, so your family knows what to do.

Education and mentoring only. I'm not a licensed financial advisor, I don't recommend specific investments and I sell no financial products.

How it works

  1. First session, 90 minutes

    We get to know each other and start working on your topic right away. You decide whether I'm the right person for you.

  2. Follow-up sessions of 60 minutes

    Usually around five, every two to three weeks. Google Meet, Teams or FaceTime.

  3. Your pace

    You choose the topic of each session. Everything stays confidential.

About me

I'm an automation and robotics engineer with 20 years in IT, more than 11 of them at a global pharma company, from IT specialist to Associate Director of IT platforms (DevOps, SRE, Agile).

People give me the most energy. For years I've soaked up soft-skills training, I spent three years as a coach in an internal coaching group, and four years of Toastmasters and well-being talks taught me to speak to a room. Now I'm taking this outside the company.

In 2026 my role was cut in a planned layoff wave. I had already reached Semi-FIRE, so I turned to what matters to me: coaching, mentoring and writing on Substack.
