As a teenager, I already knew I was destined to become a serial entrepreneur. I was fascinated with business development and marketing, and that set me on a journey across industries—from telco and SaaS to ecommerce. Along the way, I’ve built businesses, scaled startups, and driven growth in multiple sectors. I’ll start with work. Then I’ll take you sailing through the Caribbean. My first successful exit was with Tesonet, where I was the first investor. Together, we scaled the company from 1 to 150+ employees, building one of the largest startups to come out of Lithuania, and fueling the launch of industry leaders like NordVPN and Oxylabs. Some other ventures I’m proud of since then include: Co-founding and supersizing growth at GoTranscript, through B2B sales, affiliate marketing, PPC ads, and innovative customer retention strategies. This led to major clients like Apple and Samsung. Co-founding and scaling IPRoyal over 10x in just 2 years by creating a powerful platform for internet services. After my exit from Tesonet, I took some time off to learn how to sail a yacht around the Caribbean. An amazing experience, but my entrepreneurial DNA pulled me back to dry land to continue starting and growing businesses. I still find time to play outside of work though. I love traveling, tinkering with classic and sports cars, and constantly learning about this remarkable world we live in. And something else unusual about me? I hosted my own talk show and acted in ads for 4 years. Unorthodox, but highly recommended ways to boost confidence and practice public speaking skills. I’m always interested to connect with entrepreneurs and investors from all walks of life and work.
