ABOUT ME

Born in Poland, I moved to New York City and then to Los Angeles. After relocating from NYC to LA, I began my professional career in the decorative plumbing industry.

Since then, I have directed companies and product designs, bringing them to market and leading them to win various industry awards. I have earned a reputation as a true professional and gained respect in the construction industry. My network includes relationships with top sales agencies, showrooms, distributors, architects, and designers in North America.

With my extensive experience and knowledge, in 2017 I decided to start CEU Events to revolutionize continuing education and streamline the process for all involved. Additionally, I am a technology enthusiast, former volleyball player, youth volleyball coach, husband, and father of two.

Paying It Forward:

Head Coach @626VBC Local Junior Volleyball Club

Sharing my experience and knowledge with the next generation of athletes has been one of the most rewarding experiences as a parent. It all started when my oldest daughter (#16 below) and her friends showed interest in volleyball, and we began practicing at the local park. Watching them develop their skills and make the high school team as freshmen was a proud moment. After the season, the coaches formed an affordable club for public school students, and I jumped on the opportunity to coach their 16's team. There's nothing quite like paying it forward and giving back to the sport you love. Let’s go Team!
