Quote from the previous Personal Assistant:

- "This gentleman is, by far, one of the most amazing humans I have ever met. His high degree of intellectual capability and innovative mind makes each day a part of a meaningful lifelong adventure. He inspires and motivates me with his insatiable drive to live life to the fullest and works extremely hard to make that happen. He is very professional, an outstanding example for so many employers out there. Yet he is very open to having fun as well. Coming from a diplomatic environment, I found it rather difficult to grasp the particularities of this new role, that was so closely entangled with medical and therapeutic domains. Nonetheless, and this is another amazing thing about working with this gentleman, I have received all the support I needed from the team in order to adapt and understand on how to better fulfil my role and provide relevant support." _- Previous PA
