good time to say "THANK YOU"

Hi friends and colleagues


17 years ago, when I decided to make a big change in my professional life from electricity to high-tech, I told my friends: "I will start with Amdocs and then will move to IBM."

I forgot about that... but somehow it happen in reality. My jump into high-tech started with IBM technology and thanks to Yifat and Leonid who made my transition to IBM possible.

Our thoughts creating our reality - if you want it or not.


So... 13 years - I celebrated my IBM Bar-Mitzva this September and decided to take my new challenge.


Many things happen in this period.

I visited new countries - US, Spain, France, Germany, UK, Ireland, China, India, Thailand and had great experience to know other cultures in deep and become Indian.

I learned an Architect profession, I learned a new digital world of commerce. I learned English. I learned other profession - massage therapy.

I did many interesting projects. Used every opportunity to grow and learn. Life is full of opportunities if you open your eyes and mind.


The train of life never stop - if you not growing - you degrading.  

I was blessed by great mentors. My special appreciation to Yoel Arditi and Ronen Siman-Tov.

But I seen everyone as my mentors. And I tried to inspire other to grow.

Many things happen in this period, but most valuable - people. We all are connected, if you believe or not.


As I'm always saying - it is always good time to say "THANK YOU", there is nothing more valuable than appreciation.


I met people who inspired me.

I met people I learned from them.

I met people I enjoyed to work with.

I met people who helped me to be better.

I'm saying you personal "THANK YOU" with my pleasure and honor !!! Because you are one of these important people in my life.
