About Me
I have been speaking publicly for almost ten years, in more than 30 countries around the globe. I have spent most of my career in the enterprise search industry, most recently as the founder and CEO of Search Explained.

I live outside of Budapest, Hungary, with my husband and three children. In my free time, I enjoy reading and photography.
