Vola Software
Jun 2015 - nowThe beginning of the year brought new challenges to my doorstep. I decided to dedicate my full time to developing Vola Software, a company where I have been playing only a consultative role so far. The position of CEO allows me to focus the company's resources on specific verticals and help it develop a steady stream of satisfied customers. Our company was born of the need to provide challenging and well-paid jobs to the people of our region. Since then, the company grew to become the biggest software company in town.
