Hi! I am Jakub Vokaty. Project Manager, Student and IT Enthusiast.
I am a Swiss and Czech national currently finishing my degree in International Affairs at the University of St. Gallen, Switzerland. In the course of my studies I was fortunate enough to accumulate experiences as a project manager for IT projects and in event management, where I discovered my passion for it.
During my free time I like to cook, tinker on my server, watch movies and tv shows and I am trying to read more books.
