Bio
Sophia Balafouti
As a dedicated HR professional John could easily switch between different roles. Easy-going team member, fast learner by nature, confident leader when needed. He had a positive approach to his work which obviously succeeded best results. This is one of the reasons for which John was commented by his seniors. As an individual, he was always generous and supportive to all his colleagues.
Elena Makri
It is my pleasure to recommend John as a credible professional and excellent collaborator who brings the skills and knowledge needed in his field. Personally, I met him as a post-graduate fellow student, and I was impressed from the very first moment by his commitment and positive attitude at all times! John always contributed to the team meetings by speaking up his mind and sharing his opinion and experiences. He connected easily with other people and has been a valuable member to the team. John is an intelligent and thoughtful person and I am very confident that he will add value to any organization with his hard work, consistency, ethical behavior and genuine interest for the people.
