Coming from a small city with limited opportunities, he worked tirelessly to develop his skills, compete internationally, and establish himself in Los Angeles. All the while, he successfully balanced law studies with a full-time dance career, proving his dedication to achieving his goals without compromising his academic aspirations.

He envisions himself contributing to major international projects and tours while also transitioning into more choreographic and creative director roles. Throughout his global work, he remains devoted to promoting and supporting Poland, particularly his hometown, Lublin.
