My home country is Cluj-Napoca (Transylvania) in Romania. I worked as a jewellery store manager and after getting married and beginning a new adventure, I relocated to the UK in 2013.
My career in the UK began as a train steward on the mainline to London here in Sheffield. I progressed to Inspector and assisted the company to move from a paper based to electronic system. The covid pandemic represented, as for many others, an opportunity to change careers. In 2020 I joined one of the biggest warehouse operations in Europe.
In my first year I tried different departments until I entered the HR Department and realized this was where I felt my future career lay. I am always eager to learn and improve my skills, so I began the CIPD Level 5 Diploma in People Management before starting at Broomgrove in 2022. I enjoy working with people, being available for everyone who needs help and coming up with new and creative ways to make the workplace better.
I have a wonderful wife, two adorable boys, and I love watching movies with them. My other passions include cooking and gardening.
