2021 — 2026 · The path so far
My story
Meet the decisions, experiments, and turning points that shaped how I build and where I am heading next.
The journey
Milestones and turning points — not a CV, just how I got here.
First entrepreneurial experiments
I launched my first dropshipping store while still in elementary school. It wasn't a financial success, but it introduced me to HTML, CSS, UX, and the fundamentals of online business. More importantly, I realized that I genuinely enjoyed the entire process—from identifying a problem to building a solution and seeing the outcome.
Discovering different paths
I started experimenting with social media management, copywriting, and other business models. When the first version of ChatGPT became available, I immediately saw it as a practical tool rather than just a new technology. It helped me land my first paid projects and taught me an important lesson: technology creates value only when it helps people solve real problems more effectively.
This was also the first time I realized I could earn money through my own ideas and skills instead of simply exchanging time for money.
My first clients
I combined everything I had learned and started building websites for clients. Finding my first client was far more difficult than delivering the project itself. That experience taught me that technical skills are only one part of entrepreneurship. Earning someone's trust is often the hardest challenge.
At sixteen, I also received legal approval to start my own business, allowing me to operate under my own name before reaching adulthood. It was an unusual opportunity, but more importantly, it gave me the freedom to take responsibility for my own work from an early age.
Starting to understand client businesses
As I worked on more client projects, I realized I wasn't most interested in designing websites, I was interested in understanding client's businesses.
Conversations gradually shifted from layouts and colors to positioning, customer experience, competitive differentiation, and business strategy. Websites became just a tool in the puzzle.
That change completely transformed how I think about creating value.
Oslavu.com
I launched Oslavu.com, my first serious startup project. Although it ultimately didn't succeed, it became my biggest learning experience.
For the first time, I validated ideas with real users, talked to potential customers, built pilot partnerships, and experienced what it means to create a product from scratch instead of delivering a service.
This project confirmed something I had been feeling for a while: my long-term ambition isn't to build websites, it's to build innovative products that solve meaningful problems and have the potential to scale.
Running as a serious habit
This year I started taking running seriously and I genuinely love it. From early morning kilometers to race days, it became the part of my week that clears my head and resets my energy.
I ran my first half marathon in Brno (21.3 km in 1:42) and a 5 km race in Olomouc in 20:46. Beyond the times, running keeps teaching me the same lesson I need in work: progress comes from consistency, not from waiting for motivation. It is also one of the areas where I can use my competitive nature.
A new chapter in Denmark
In August 2026, I moved to Denmark to study Economics and Business Administration at Aarhus University in Herning.
For me, university isn't the destination, it's an environment. I want to surround myself with ambitious people, gain an international perspective, and challenge myself outside my comfort zone.
I see this as the beginning of the next chapter of my journey and a big opportunity for growth.
