Restaurateur since 2012. My journey began with the international chain of Italian restaurants Ciro's Pomodoro, where I worked as a PR manager and organized large conferences.
Then there were the hotel and restaurant complexes "Berloga", "PryLisne", and "Irys", where I gained powerful practical experience in holding banquets, conferences, organizing concerts, meetings of first-class persons, and off-site events.
I am an economist by education, so I always focus on numbers in my work. What is important to me is the analysis of financial indicators and what I can do for the restaurant to increase turnover. I have practical cases of launching and restarting projects, training staff, and developing standardization.
