Jsem absolventem Vysoké školy ekonomické v Praze, kde jsem se soustředil na mezinárodní obchod a finance.
Do roku 2007 jsem působil jako ředitel pro strategii ve skupině Agrofert, kde jsem zodpovídal za tuzemské i zahraniční fúze a akvizice včetně nákupu německé společnosti SKW Piesteritz. Následně jsem více než deset let strávil ve Švýcarsku. Jako finanční a následně generální ředitel jsem pomáhal s rozvojem společnosti Ameropa.
Tento rodinný podnik působí ve více než 40 zemích světa a je zaměřen na obchod, logistiku a výrobu v oblasti zemědělských komodit. Ameropu jsem provedl transformací z převážně tradingové společnosti v podnik s robustní základnou logistických a výrobních aktiv. Expandovali jsme i geograficky včetně vybudování jednoho z největších distributorů hnojiv v Austrálii. Od roku 2020 pak zastávám také pozici předsedy představenstva skupiny Cetin.
