Joined Katzarov in 2021

Hobbies & Personal information

Passionate about board games, some are spreading the rumor that she has more than 250 games. She only feels good when others are too, stopping at nothing to make it happen. She likes cats, aquariums and Yoga Nidra. Positive most of the time, she tries to make it a way of life.

“I have been working since 1999 in Switzerland, beginning in a telecom company, it was for me as if it was yesterday and finally time flies. I have worked for international trust and fiduciary companies as well as big international companies, even having the change to serve the ambitions of the Artemis racing team in the America’s Cup for which I worked for 6 years. Each new challenge allowed me to enrich my knowledge and skills to become Head of Accounting.

What I prefer in my job is the fact that the human is at the center: my role is to help and support others in their daily work by providing them with the data they need to make the right choices, by handling reminders allowing managers to focus on their core business or by managing the cash flow as accurately as possible so that the management can serenely see important upcoming deadlines

I joined Katzarov in 2021 to take over the management of the accounting department.”
