The attitude that the university gave me is very important. One that spends a few years at this place will eventually see the world through different eyes.

Please, introduce yourself briefly (What do you do now, what was the road leading there? What motivates you in your work? What do you think is the most important about you?)!

Sport has been a large part of my life so far. In my sport, basketball, I have achieved everything that was possible. This was a beautiful period of my life. Now I work for PSN Inc. as sport organiser. Since 2010 I have been a representative of the Municipality of Pécs.

What major stations would you mention in your life and work since you finished Pécsiközgáz (either in your profession or private life)?

It was not easy to live in real life after the bubble offered by sport, despite the fact that I had trained myself – even though I remained close to sport. The second big step was when I was elected a representative in 2010. It was another big leap, as it was a filed unknown to me.

What does success mean to you (either in your professional career or your private life)?

I have had a lot of it in my life, fortunately: I am two times 3rd at European championship, four times Hungarian champion and three times Hungarian cup winner.

When 6,000 people almost breathe with you and support you, it releases energies that you feel you have no other choice than victory. Of course this cannot be told, everyone should experience it.

What did Pécsiközgáz give you (What are the values and experiences that you got from the Faculty? Why was (is) it worth attending the Faculty?)?

The attitude that the university gave me is very important. One who spends a few years here will see the world through different eyes eventually. Pécsiközgáz prepared me to be able to work and to make responsible decisions on my own and also in teams.

Of course we did not feel the importance of this then and there, but in real life it soon became obvious.

If Pécsiközgáz was a super hero, what do you think it would be like (What does he fight for? What is his main weapon, super capability? What does he look like, what does he wear, and what is his nickname? etc.)?

His weapon is evidently knowledge; he is up-to-date, marketable and innovative. But nobody should expect a miracle; one has to work a lot for this also here, like everywhere else.
