Mentee
Andreea Bogasiu
Andreea has been passionate about music for a long time. She does not sing, but since 2007 she has always been in public at concerts and festivals. In addition to sports, mountain trails, and travel, music, and concerts are a constant part of her life. She collects CDs, pieces of vinyl, she would listen to music non-stop, and her favorite place in the library is the one that gathers books related to music.
She has spent more than 8 active years in the corporation, went through the center and help desk, and finally chose the training field. During all this time, she has developed her skills, explored her creativity, and currently delivers creative trainings on topics such as communication, leadership, coaching, feedback, customer-centricity.
Two years ago, the planets lined up in her favor and she got into the radio world. She loved the experience, started exploring her creativity in other ways, and seriously thought about a change, so now she wants to get past the stage behind her because she knows her place is in the music industry.
