The same curiosity that drove me to take apart toys as a child — watches, players, later computers and cars — led me through a career in IT. My team developed Estonia's national ID-card software, and I later moved to the Ministry of Finance where we were responsible for critical systems.

Then came the crypto world. I was the world's first crypto expert at LHV Bank, served on the board of Change Invest, co-founded several startups, trained, consulted, and invested.

From the outside, everything seemed fine. A soaring career, money, personal life in order. But inside, something was gnawing. A vague inner dissatisfaction I couldn't name. I was searching for something, but I didn't know what.
