“Everything is possible here because the expectations are whatever you make of it,” says Jeffrey, a feisty but soft-hearted business executive who also had an experience as a high school teacher in Bulgaria. In the business front, he gathered considerable experience in business as a securities and commodities broker and investment advisor at Morgan Stanley, in addition to a stint as a campaign coordinator on a statewide initiative in California and a legislative aide to a state senator.

“Success is a healthy balance in all aspects of a person's life, be it spiritual, social, friends and family, or professional. I am a student of international business and finance and of foreign affairs, and I have a goal of incorporating my learnings into every facet of my life,” added the well-spoken and socially-aware ‘Hydra Executives’ aspirant, who also worked as a construction worker while at the University of Colorado at Boulder. 

“Developed markets are much harder to start businesses and new careers in because of all of the dogmatic expectations that are set in stone. The unknown is where the shocking creativity and innovation are born,” added Jefferey, who has expressed his high expectations for his role at the show, and his excitement to become a part of Abu Dhabi’s introduction to a large segment of the world who has not seen it before in a business perspective.
