“After graduating the Law Faculty of “Danubius” University in 1999, the same year graduating the Administrative Sciences Study Program at the Faculty of Public Administration of the National School of Political and Administrative Studies in Bucharest, I became a teacher.

After practicing as a lawyer for a short period, I returned to my first passion, that of being a teacher. I taught at some of the most prestigious universities in Romania. I should mention the extraordinary professional experiences that I lived at the National Institute of Magistracy where I coordinated the activity of trainee magistrates; then I taught Civil Law at the Police Academy and the National School of Political and Public Administration Sciences, Bucharest.

As my soul has always remained in Galati, at “Danubius” University, I chose in 2008 to dedicate my entire energy to Danubius and to implement a daring vision for that period in which there was a fierce competition of the higher education institutions in Romania.

I managed to achieve many results through effective strategic measures, by finding alternatives to diversify our educational offer and to change our approach. And all of this was achieved with the help of dedicated staff, enthusiastic students and the graduates of our university.

As a University President and Rector, alongside my team, we have approached the future of the modern “Danubius” University which has valued the old traditions of higher education, as true strategic visionaries, assuming our new mentality of project management regardless of the field in which we operate: education, research-development-innovation or services.

Internationalization, entrepreneurship, open and online are the key terms that will support and direct our determination to fulfill the objectives of “Danubius” University’s mission, the university that managed to connect the global community through quality, professionalism, enthusiasm, involvement of its people: students, teachers, non-teaching staff, graduates.

My vision is that Danubius University will be recognized in the area between the Black Sea and Baltic Sea as an international university of excellence, an open and stimulating environment for personal and entrepreneurial development, as well as for the constant exchange of ideas and values.”
