I grew up playing basketball and till the age of 21 played professional sports. After my civil engineering studies and work in the corporate world, I realized that I needed some change, so I continued my career in sports as a personal manager for the best Latvian men’s tennis player Ernests Gulbis. With tennis, I traveled the world (25+ countries), and most importantly met new people and realized my passion. It was sports and everything around it, so naturally, I wanted to study more about it (sports science, physiotherapy, psychology, leadership, nutrition, etc.) and in 2014 opened my own coaching company SIA Tennis Fitness. In 2016, I decided that I wanted to create a corporate wellbeing platform Winning-Heart-Rate as a tool for my professional work and look for ways I could transition the knowledge from professional sports to business and regular people. Needless to say my road from that decision has been far from easy. Up on till now, I have worked in the corporate environment as a project manager, sales manager, business development manager, and managed my own start-up company and a medium-sized team of 40 people.
In 2016, I experienced tragedy in my personal life and this event completely changed me and the way I saw the world. After great personal transformation, I finally understood my life’s purpose and it was to help others to understand themselves as well. The only thing left for me was to figure out how I would be able to do that.
The rest is history, and from 2021 project Winning-Heart-Rate is in its realization phase, so by joining the WHR community you will become part of my story and hopefully find some meaning in your life as well.
I truly believe that only people who have gone into the unknown and come back in “one piece” can help others with healthy guidance, so if you are reading this, it means I have found my way.

P.s. I am also a proud father and happy fiancee.

Sincerely,
