In this beautiful world I am learning how to survive with my constantly evolving entrepreneurship skills as an Independent ICT R&D expert. In a world of science I am working on my PhD in Electronics / Telemedicine. I have finished Warsaw University of Technology at Electronics and Information Technology Faculty / Institute of Electronic Systems / Research Group on Biocybernetic Aparatus, where I got MSc in Electronics and Information Technology in Medical Sciences (2011) and BSc in Electronics and Computer Design (2009). At WUT I was also founder of the Cybernetic Research Student Group and member of the Student Space Engineering Scientific Group. I am the founder of Polish Interdisciplinary NEUROSCIENCE Gorup. I am a member and vice-president of the Polish Telemedicine and e-Health Society. Before University I had finished Technical Highshool of Electronics in Kielce City where I grew up – I have very good memories about that place, time and people, thank you!

My free moments, this very rare gift, I spend on developing my skills and abilities, broadening my mind and verification of knowledge about the world that surrounds me. Progress and honest work is the only way to reach the future. I am a futurist, science and technology enthusiast. I usually want to know the reason and goal of my actions. I like to see the effects of my work in a reasonable time period. Ability to create and invent is the best gift I could ever get. I honor individualism over society. Sometimes I live in better relations with machines than with humans. What is more, I don’t understand most of the social mechanisms and I’m not sad about that. But still, I learn to understand people – Diamond Way Buddhism is the best school of minds I have found so far, also the most interesting way of living with other people.

I can walk hard over the Earth. I can be stubborn and don’t give up fast. If I only see the reason, I don’t see any difficulties. I like changes and challenges. I don’t like stagnation and I don’t have a chance of being bored. But I also like walking along stable ground. If I don’t know or can’t do something yet.. it’s the best reason to learn it. Gaining skills and knowledge is a very pleasant task. Instead of running away from problems I try to resolve their source. I like and respect hard working people that know their own goals in their life and simply realize them.

I’m learning how to move over the ground and flip the world upside down :-) In 2013 I did a Glider Pilot Training. In 2014 I started Airplane Pilot Training. SkyDive adventure started in 2012 (now licensed PJ B / USPA C) keeps my mind focused and active. I also like sport shooting. Some time ago, when I had more leisure time, I was training Capoeira. I like this sport a lot because of its speed, agility and good health condition requirement. I respect and I do care about health – bad times when I lost it taught me that a healthy spirit lives in a healthy body. That is why I try to live healthy and optimistic – not everyone knows that every day can be their last one on this planet. I also like riding a bike and motorcycle. But what I care most is freedom and independence – as it can be seen in most of my decisions. I also know how to be part of a well organized group with a systematic approach and precisely defined goals.

Jung Typology Estimation

INTJ (Introvertic iNtuitive Thinking Judging)

INTJ are extremely analytical individuals. They prefer working alone than with other people, they are also not as social as others, but they can take over the ledership if no one can cope with a problem, or if they find critical weakness of the actual leader. They are very pragmatic and logic thinkers, with low tolerance on temperamental or defensive emotionalism. Usually neither vulnerable to propaganda, nor authority based upon a tradition, rank or title. Particularly INTJ are independent thinkers, strong individualism and creativity. People with that kind of personality requires autonomy and creativity freedom in their work. They also feel strong need to express themselves with a process of creation and conceptual development of their intellectual desires. Analytical approach and easily formulating complex theories is their strongest attribute.
