After more than three amazing years, I’ve decided to step down from my role as Regional Director at BlackBull. I want to sincerely thank the senior leadership for their support and trust during this time—it’s been an incredible journey.
It’s been a privilege to work with some truly talented professionals, and I’m especially proud of the opportunity to help set up and grow our offices in Cyprus and Dubai, alongside some incredible colleagues. Those experiences have been invaluable and ones I’ll always cherish.
I’m now looking forward to the next chapter of my career, which I’ll be sharing soon. Excited for what’s to come!
