Artificial (and Natural) Intelligence.

I'm fascinated by AI applications in business and everyday life. I research the functioning of the human mind, including the elusive combination of brain and computer.I have created and managed large, interdisciplinary teams, achieving successes on an international scale. Currently at Deloitte I lead data science and AI practice, applying solutions to the most important challenges like climate risk. Working at IBM and SAS, together with the largest banks, industrial companies, and government institutions, I implemented solutions based on artificial intelligence and advanced analytics. While at Deutsche Telekom, I introduced innovative products to the market, including the first mobile payments in Europe and the first cloud platform among Polish operators. At Microsoft, I had the opportunity to work directly with the management boards of large corporations, built complex partnership strategies, and achieved sales goals of tens of millions of euros.For many years I have been an MBA lecturer in data science and project management. My superpowers include strategic thinking, leadership, creativity, and persistence in achieving goals.Privately, I love traveling, once again I plan a tour around the world. My favorite region is Southeast Asia, Australia, and New Zealand. After living a few months in an islet near Bali, I became a professional freediver. In turn, traveling inside myself has taught me to appreciate the beauty in non-linearity of life and the colors of everyday moments. Drawing on this experience and the competence of a certified mindfulness teacher, I try to support others in understanding themselves so that they can consciously choose their own path to a fulfilled life.
