The Pop in Your Job – What drives you? Why do you love your job?
One of my greatest driving forces is to enhance human efficiency.

We're witnessing a transformative era with robots, chatbots, and self-driving cars becoming reality. Imagine the collective potential of humanity freed from driving millions of cars.
