Time to meet the Project Manager at Grapefruit, Aiftimie!

What are your three most overused words/phrases?

1. Let me get back to you after we analyse the requirement.

2. No, I can't give a deadline before talking to the team.

3. Yes honey, I will do it right away.

Myself

If you were to write a book about yourself, what would you name it?

'Somehow I manage': inspired by the T.V. show 'The Office'. It doesn't matter how much experience and how many certifications you have, at some point, you have to deal with the unexpected and those moments define you as an individual.

What do you like most about Grapefruit?

Teamwork is the thing I like most working in Grapefruit. I've joined them in full pandemic context and even though, for 3-4 months, the work has been remote when we finally met in the office it was like we knew each other for years.

Describe what you were like at age 10.

I was highly energetic, daydreaming how amazing it will be when I'll be a grown-up person, not like my lame parents who were non-stop working, and breaking my legs while playing football.

What is the best vacation you’ve been to?

The best vacation I've had so far was the one in which I achieved:

- two music festivals with my favourite artists;

- going to the seaside;

- visit my favourite foreign country;

- see a football game with the team I support.

How do you spend your time outside of the office?

Outside of office I read a lot of tech articles to see what is new on the market, watch/play online and outside football, binge-watch 2-3 T.V. shows, but never finish them and take care of my family.
