A typical day starts with identifying the big rocks that need to be moved. I value the morning hours because they are usually free from calls and meetings, allowing uninterrupted thinking time and focused decision-making.

Post lunch, the day shifts towards collaboration with European and US teams, working closely with cross-functional leaders to drive alignment and execution.
