-Fast growing and that leads to more opportunities.

– What would you tell anybody who wants to work at Globant?

If you want to get a workplace with tons of opportunities – your career path leads to Globant.

– How was your career path in Globant?

I’m not so long in Globant (something about a few months) but I see the company with such good and experience people, work with a world leader in their business customer. This is so excited and motivating me!

– If you could say only one phrase to people starting their professional path in tech, what would you say?

You can make the world better!

– Did you have moments or situations in your professional career that made you think you couldn’t make it through, but actually made you stronger? Which were those?

Of course, such situations were. Without those situations (I call them “challenges”), there would be no progress. I think, regardless of such challenges, you always need to do your best! Even if something does not work out, you’ll know that you did your best, gained experience, and next time the combination of these factors will give you an advantage!

– If you had to explain your job to a little kid, what would you say?

I do the world better!

– Why do you participate in Storyteller Contest?

I like to be a speaker and I think I had something to say. Storyteller Contest revealed me one more way how I can do it!

– What is one thing you couldn’t live without?

People. I keen on interactions, efficiency, improvement and keeping of knowledge.

– Tell us a fun fact about you

I was a cosplayer (for 4-5 years) and for now shooting and editing video for Youtube and more as my hobby!
