Alex Eftimie - My Story

I was Born and raised in Bucharest, Romania, except for vacations which I mostly spent with my only younger brother at our grandparents. Like many other Romanians from my generation.

Third generation into building and fixing things. One of my grandfathers was a house builder, the other one maintained the pumps and pipes of the village water source. And my father is a plumber and electrician.

I loosely continued the family business so to say, as in I spent the first 15 years of my career building websites and apps which are a different kind of house and also at the same time in internet networking which is just a massive collection of pipes.

In 2018 I slowly and steadily aka kicking and screaming started to distance myself from IT. Made some money on an exit. And was on the lookout for the next big thing.
