Senior Marketing Leader @ Google | Digital Transformation Enabler | DEI Champion
Since joining Google in 2014, I've been on a mission to lead businesses toward their digital milestones. My journey took an exciting turn in 2018 when I became Greece's first #IamRemarkable facilitator, spreading the word about this transformative global initiative that champions overcoming imposter syndrome and celebrates diversity, inclusion, and LGBTQI+ empowerment across the nation.
In 2020, I took another step forward by becoming the first Greek facilitator for Google's Women Will program, where I had the incredible opportunity to support women in entrepreneurship and leadership, even sharing insights at the UN Women Summit. With over 100 workshops conducted across EMEA, my goal has been to shine a light on unconscious biases, striving to change the way we see ourselves, how we connect with others, and pursue a life filled with purpose.
Beyond these roles, I find joy and fulfillment as a mentor, guiding individuals on their paths to career growth and success. My aim? To make a difference, one workshop, one policy, one mentoring session at a time.
