About

Historian by training.
Growth executive by track record.

I studied history, ethnology, and cultural analysis across three universities in Greece and Sweden. I spent years learning how to decode the way people think, what they value, and how narratives shape behavior. That training became the foundation for everything I do in content and growth.

My first professional steps were in copywriting, crafting institutional messaging for the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center, then writing UX and advertising copy for FREENOW during its European hyper-growth phase. I learned early that words have a measurable impact on business outcomes.

Since then, I have built content operations from scratch at multiple companies, founded and exited businesses, published in The Guardian and other major outlets, and earned my MiFID II Investment Advisor certification. Today I serve as Head of Organic Growth and Finance Content Manager at Wealthyhood, where I have delivered 135% organic acquisition growth and built Greece's first fintech video studio.

My background in the humanities gave me something most growth practitioners lack: a trained understanding of how people process information, form trust, and make decisions. My decade in SEO and entrepreneurship gave me the systems thinking to turn that understanding into revenue.
