Bio
I was born in Hungary, in Eastern Europe, before the regime change. Deep in my heart, I aspired to be an artist. However, at that time, admission to the sole University of Arts was heavily influenced by the political affiliations and views of an applicant’s family. Connections to the ruling socialist party or other political ties offered a significant advantage—none of which applied to me. As a result, I pursued studies in mathematics instead.
The year following the regime change, I graduated with a degree in mathematics. This pivotal moment coincided with a wave of change in Eastern Europe: multinational companies arrived, and a market economy began to take shape. The focus of university education shifted as well, leading me to study economics, international trade, and marketing. I earned additional degrees in these fields, along with an MBA in international management. These new directions marked the beginning of my transition into leadership development.
Years later, I started building my own leadership development venture, which also allowed me to reignite my lifelong passion for drawing and painting. Starting from scratch, I embarked on a journey of artistic growth, diligently selecting my art teachers and striving to learn from the very best. Though my career remained my primary focus, painting became an integral part of my personal exploration.
In my leadership development work, my understanding of archetypes and personality traits has reached a professional level. This expertise has profoundly influenced my artistic pursuits. On the canvas, archetypes come to life, reflecting the intricate interplay of human traits, emotions, and shared stories. My paintings capture not only external realities but also the deep archetypal threads that define our collective human experience.
Through my dual journey in leadership development and art, I have discovered that embracing our multifaceted nature is key to unlocking our true potential. Just as a painting emerges from the interplay of colors and forms, our lives gain richness when we harmonize the diverse aspects of who we are.
By sharing my work and story, I aim to inspire others to embark on their own journey of growth, creativity, and self-discovery—transforming challenges into opportunities and unlocking their full potential to contribute to a vibrant and evolving human experience.
