Tell us a little bit about yourself and your career journey to date.
I’ve been with GoDaddy for the past five years, and it’s been an incredibly rewarding journey. I started as a WordPress Expert, working directly with customers and gaining firsthand insight into the impact of excellent customer experience. That role helped me build deep technical expertise in WordPress, while also honing skills in problem-solving, communication, and empathy under pressure.
Over time, I advanced into a leadership position as Supervisor for WordPress Advanced Support Specialists with a focus on Messaging. In this role, I mentor and support the development of our team members, streamline performance processes, and ensure we consistently provide exceptional customer experiences through chat. It’s a natural evolution, moving from solving individual technical challenges to enabling a team that resolves hundreds of complex issues every day.
Prior to GoDaddy, I worked as a Frontend Developer. My fascination with websites began long before that. As a kid, I loved experimenting with how websites worked and learning by doing. That curiosity eventually shaped a career that blends technology, customer experience, and leadership.
What kinds of complex challenges do you and your team help customers solve?
At the heart of our work is troubleshooting. Every day, we step into websites and help customers resolve a wide range of issues, from small configuration problems to complex technical conflicts. What makes this particularly challenging is that customers often don’t know what changed or triggered the problem. Something “just stopped working,” and it’s up to us to investigate using the information available, which is often limited. We analyze symptoms, review configurations, check recent updates, identify conflicts, and piece everything together like a puzzle.
Troubleshooting established websites requires a very different mindset than building something from scratch. Instead of following a plan we created ourselves, we’re navigating environments that may have evolved over months or years, sometimes with multiple contributors and changes along the way. It demands strong technical knowledge, structured thinking, and the ability to stay calm under pressure.
Beyond the technical side, what truly defines our team is our commitment to helping. Even when an issue isn’t strictly website-related, if we can guide or support our customers, we do. For us, it’s not just about fixing a problem; it’s about providing clarity, confidence, and partnership.
How do you balance being hands-on with technical issues while also leading and developing your team?
For me, this is where passion and purpose intersect. Staying hands-on with technology comes naturally. I’ve loved exploring websites and tech since I was a kid, and that curiosity continues to drive me today. Keeping up with changes, mastering new tools, and staying technically sharp isn’t just part of my job; it’s something I genuinely enjoy and plan to do for the long term.
Leadership gives that technical passion a deeper meaning. Sharing knowledge, mentoring others, and helping team members grow is incredibly fulfilling. I remember what it felt like when I was starting out: the uncertainty, the questions, and the moments when guidance would have made a huge difference. Being able to provide that support today is something I truly value.
Balancing both comes down to staying engaged enough technically to understand the real challenges my team faces, while creating space to coach, support, and develop the team. The technical side keeps me sharp. The leadership side ensures that impact is multiplied across the team.
What surprises people most about what goes into WordPress Advanced Support?
Many people are surprised by how much investigation, structure, and critical thinking goes on behind the scenes. From the outside, it may look like we’re simply answering technical questions, but much of our work is deep analysis. Customers often come with symptoms, an error message, a slow website, or something that “suddenly stopped working.” They may not know what changed or caused it, so we have to dig into configurations, updates, conflicts, and underlying systems to uncover the root cause.
Another surprising element is the level of communication required. Understanding the technical issue is only part of the job. We must also explain complex concepts clearly, adapt to different technical skill levels, and provide reassurance, especially when a customer’s business depends on their website.
WordPress Advanced Support is a combination of technical expertise, investigative problem-solving, and emotional intelligence. It’s part detective work, part engineering, and part customer experience, which makes it both challenging and highly rewarding.
What differentiates GoDaddy from other companies in Serbia?
What truly sets GoDaddy apart in Serbia is our culture. A team that’s passionate, supportive, and always learning. We’re especially proud of our strong team spirit and commitment to knowledge sharing, which ensures everyone grows together.
We combine that culture with global expertise and a personal, local touch. We don’t just solve technical issues. We guide, educate, and empower customers, even with challenges others can’t handle.
Being part of a global company also gives us access to cutting-edge tools and technology, so our customers consistently receive world-class support.
What’s your motto or personal mantra?
My motto is: Stay curious, keep learning, and help others along the way. I’ve loved exploring technology since I was a kid, and that curiosity still drives me today. Equally important is sharing knowledge and supporting others, whether colleagues or customers, because solving problems is only one part of making an impact.

NEW DELHI, April 27, 2026 /3BL/ – Medtronic, a global leader in healthcare technology, today announced the launch of its Adaptive Deep Brain Stimulation (aDBS) system, an innovation over conventional DBS, in India to further improve quality of life of patients living with Parkinson’s disease.
The prevalence of Parkinson’s disease (PD) in India is roughly 10% of the global burden, which is a considerable public health concern.1
Parkinson’s is a progressive neurological condition that can affect how a person moves and functions in everyday life. Over time, it may make routine activities such as walking, writing, or holding everyday objects more difficult. While movement-related challenges are often the most visible, the condition can also influence other aspects of daily living, including communication, sleep, and overall well‑being. Today, a range of treatment approaches help manage symptoms as the disease evolves. Care is typically tailored over time, with treatment pathways adjusted based on individual needs and clinical assessment by specialists.2
Treatment options like Deep Brain Stimulation exist which involve manual adjustment of stimulation levels throughout the day, usually managed by patients or caregivers Medtronic’s aDBS technology is designed to adapt real time to changes in a patient’s condition or medication needs—helping deliver more consistent symptom management. The aDBS system uses BrainSense™ technology, which has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). 3-4
Adaptive deep brain stimulation (aDBS) is designed to automatically adjust therapy based on changes in brain signals or patient activity. By responding in real time, it aims to provide more consistent symptom control, minimize side effects, and help extend the life of the implanted device’s battery.
With India expected to witness a significant rise in Parkinson’s disease cases—projected to become the second-highest globally within the next five years7—the introduction of the aDBS system comes at a critical time. Although there is currently no cure for conditions such as Parkinson’s disease, deep brain stimulation (DBS) has been transforming the lives of patients with Parkinson’s and other neurological disorders for more than three decades. 5-6
DBS uses a small, pacemaker-like device, placed under the skin of the chest, to send electronic signals to an area in the brain that controls movement. To give you relief, these signals block some of the brain messages that cause the movement symptoms of Parkinson’s.
On the occasion, Prateek Tiwari, Senior Director, Neuroscience & Specialty therapies, Medtronic India said, “We are extremely proud to introduce this advanced technology in India, where Parkinson’s disease is an increasingly significant healthcare concern. Our mission has always been to alleviate pain, restore health, and extend life, and the introduction of this system reflects our continued commitment to that mission. This milestone not only reaffirms our dedication to addressing the growing burden of Parkinson’s disease but also strengthens our leadership in bringing cutting-edge healthcare technologies to India to ultimately improve patients’ quality of life.’’
As the burden of a disease such as Parkinson’s will rise, continued investment in cutting-edge technologies will be essential to expanding access to better care, supporting clinicians with deeper insights, and ultimately improving the quality of life for patients across the country.
Patients considering deep brain stimulation (DBS) typically begin by consulting a Movement Disorder Specialist, usually a neurologist, who evaluates whether their condition may benefit from this therapy. DBS follows a coordinated, team-based approach, with patients often referred to a comprehensive DBS clinic or neurosurgery board for further assessment. If considered suitable, a Functional Neurosurgeon—specially trained to perform the procedure—works alongside the care team to implant and program the device.

As a part of NASA’s Artemis II mission, the crew of the Orion capsule are using 3M™ PELTOR™ ComTac™ VI Tactical Headsets for communication. Artemis II is NASA’s first crewed mission of the Artemis program which sent four astronauts on a lunar flyby. It’s part of the space agency’s work to establish a sustained human presence on the Moon and prepare for future missions to Mars. The crew launched on April 1 and will splashdown April 10 in the Pacific Ocean near San Diego.
3M’s PELTOR™ ComTac™ VI Headsets feature technologies that can help enable communications in challenging environments. Their omnidirectional environmental microphones can sense surrounding sounds, amplify weak sounds to an audible level and automatically compressing loud noise to help users stay aware of what’s happening around them. The headset boom microphone uses noise-canceling technology that transmits the user’s voice while filtering out background noise, keeping speech clear even in high noise environments.
This isn’t the first time 3M products have made their way into a NASA mission.
3M Glass bubbles were used to insulate NASA’s 1.25-million-gallon liquid hydrogen storage tank at Kennedy Space Center, which helped support the launch of the Artemis II mission. NASA selected the hollow glass microspheres after more than 20 years of testing for their high strength, low density and low thermal conductivity, which help limit liquid hydrogen boiloff as cryogenic tanks expand and contract. The improved insulation allows NASA to store fuel longer and support consecutive launch attempts, a key capability for sustained Artemis missions to the Moon and beyond.
In 1969, 3M products were used by astronauts in the first moon landing, including 3M™ Fluorel™ Elastomer, a synthetic rubber used in the astronaut’s boots worn inside the space capsule.
