Google DevRel Ecosystem Lead CEE, Project Manager, and Mother in Zürich, Switzerland
There are no limits to what you can achieve once you understand that it is simple people around us who are changing the world.
After completing my MBA in China, I joined Google in 2008. I call myself an intrapreneur and I think Google is one of the very few places which can keep an entrepreneurial spirit like myself for so many years. I started at Google Poland as a Program Manager, innovating the Online Sales organization. After 2 years I moved to Switzerland and I have been working with Developer Relations ever since. First building Google's ecosystem in Emerging Markets, driving connectivity and establishing communities of developers and tech startups. Later I founded and managed 2 global programs, Google Business Groups (google.com/landing/gbg) and Google Developer Experts (developers.google.com/experts), Google's network of top developers, designers and product innovators around the world. I also founded one of the largest "airbnb type" corporate hosting networks which currently has thousands of "Google hosts" in more than 90 cities around the world.
Since 2016, I lead Developer Relations Ecosystem for Google in Central and Eastern Europe and I hope to bring the best of CEE apps to the world. You can read my blog with a click on the button above.
