Like most of the people I wear many different hats.
Although I have deliberately studied Business and I gloriously acquired my MBA with Finance Major, I’m so into writing about music, history, politics, and economics that sometimes I feel I’m bipolar .. well… almost!
I love Business because after so many years of being involved with management concepts and finance equations, I have realized that everything in life is business. Everything, except pure love and honest feelings. So, in a way, I’m glad I can do both. I’m glad I’m still naïve and I can love and trust people without being afraid they gonna fool me. And I’m glad I can understand their marketing instincts.
I currently work as a financial and investment advisor at an international financial institution. Yet, my dream is to be able to make a living as a writer. Writing mostly about business, finance, music, being an amateur photographer and a professional dj, I am inspired from life.
I have also lived for two years in Chicago, IL and Boca Raton, FL and for quite sometime in Paris, France. All this international experience has opened my eyes and has made me proud of what I have to be proud of Greece and has enlarged the way I see and understand life.
Being a strong advocate of simplicity in life, I hope that someday, human nature will cease to be greedy and demanding realizing that the more we have the more we want and the more we satisfy our needs the more needs we create. And this is so needless after all.
Thanks for stoping by and reading my brain…
