Hi! I'm Ilias

Since I was a kid I've been curious about technology. The first consoles, music devices, and corners of the internet shaped my world while growing up in a small village in northern Greece.

Right now I live in Warsaw. As a Product Manager, I helped companies like Delivery Hero, Packhelp and Netguru build better products for real people. I also often work closely with smaller teams, helping them launch products, shape market strategies, and bring their vision to life.

Outside of work I like to explore writing, photography and making things with tech. You might often spot me around the city with my analog camera, headphones on, still thinking about that short film I never finished. After living in various corners of Europe, I've developed a knack for finding the perfect sunny spot for a book and coffee.

Thank you for visiting my little corner on the internet. I aim to make this a small personal archive so that I can maintain the things that interest me, from writing and photography to books I've read and projects I've been part of.
