I hold a master’s degree in management and am currently pursuing my PhD at Riga Technical University with a dissertation on the integration of digital technologies and automation in the logistics management of the Freeport of Riga. I am the author of more than 20 scientific publications on various topics.
In 2024, I joined the ITDA and Sustainable Flow project, inspired by my research into the motivation of maritime students to engage in innovation. This followed several years of studying youth motivation for work.
I believe that the pilot ports involved in the project, including the Freeport of Riga, will significantly reduce CO₂ emissions and set an inspiring example for other Baltic ports. My inspiration comes from leading global ports like Rotterdam and Singapore, which successfully combine innovation, digitalization, and sustainability.
Travel is my best way to recharge. I always try to visit ports in every city or country I travel to, and I share my impressions and industry insights on this topic in a dedicated series on LinkedIn.
