Before becoming Internationally Renowned Elite Life Coach and Author Tony's personal journey towards finding his true sense of identity started back in 1990 when he moved to London to find safe heaven from the atrocities of a civil war in Yugoslavia during which friends, family members and many innocent people lost their lives.

He spent the last 22 years building a new life in London. Not only did he had to face all the emotional pain and the nightmares that resulted from being a war child, he also had to face the life that comes with being in London with no money, friends, job, education and family.

To top it all, he also had to face the many issues, of coming out,  especially against his home culture in the Balkans, where homophobic abuse is deeply rooted into day-to-day day living. It took me years to gain the confidence in coming out to myself and coming to terms with my own sexuality.

He felt that all of this stifled his own sense of belonging, and did impact his health & well-being. It also affected and destabilized his relationships, career, and  family. He has now overcome this, so he talk to you as someone who has been through this experiences and learnt to live a positive, healthy and balanced life.

Having graduated from University College London (UCL) doing a combined Electrical and Electronic Engineering Degree with Management studies, he then spent 15 years working with a range of individuals and businesses, from entrepreneurial start-ups and family-owned companies to big corporations in the city of London, Europe and USA. During this process he gained confidence and an understanding of myself as to how he could function in the most effective way.

Tony created these new businesses to share this knowledge, training, skill sets, and experience in a holistic approach which can allow each person to achieve excellence in their own field, identify and implement business objectives, and management of those objectives. His aim is to allow the individual to expand and develop to such extent that they in turn will inspire their own teams that they work with and  achieve their aims and objectives, what ever they may be.

His experience include working as a Head of IT (Transport for London, retail and recruitment sectors in London, Switzerland and Germany, Chief Information Officer (CIO) of Sfida Technologies and a Head of Project-Programme Management for a central UK government department.  For further information about my  IT and Business Strategic Consulting career and work please visit his Linkedin profile. 

His focus always has been to be the very best in my field and in the way lived my life. 

In 2008, having been made redundant from a secure job that he held for more than 8 years, he had the time to reflect and re-evaluate my life. He felt there was more that he was meant to do in his own life, and there was a deeper calling. However, he did not have the clarity or certainty of what that should be.

 He knew that he wanted to make a difference by serving a conscious community, and to help inspire people from all walks of life to find acceptance and true love in themselves.

He continued to work in IT doing contract work as it gave him the flexibility needed to continue doing various personal development courses as well as learning many holistic approaches to healing ones life. 

In his early years he was influenced by his parents, and his grandfathers teachings of the mysticism of the Sufi and Bektashi Order muslim religion. This helped him set the foundation to continue to explore more about life and the human potential.

He studied Psychology, NLP, CBT, Life Coaching, Kabbalah, Quantum Entrainment, Barbara Ann Brennan's Hands of Light, The Silva Method, Meditation, Buddhism, Shamanistic Healing, Martin Brofman's Body Mirror System of Healing, Sedona Method, The Secret & The Law of Attraction and others, all of which helped me empower myself to make the necessary changes needed to for him to heal his own life, develop the knowledge to help others heal their lives and in unleashing my true potential.

All the above helped him in his own journey to find his true self, life purpose and lead him towards working as a mentor, teacher of inner wisdom, Chakra Energy healer, Life, Business and Executive Coach and now writing his second and third book. He aligned his own life to the changes he wanted to make in this world.

He has achieved this success by healing his own life, accepting his self and actively developing in parallel with his professional life, his own personal development. This process has helped him to grow into a successful entrepreneur, and at the same time has allowed him to empower individuals and teams to achieve the very best they can be.

That’s why he can understand the challenges and pressure that we all have to face with our families, our jobs, society, and living a gay or bisexual man’s life in a straight man’s world.  

Each year, part of his free time is dedicated to his personal self education and journey, family, and friends. He also believes in helping the community and participating in various charity fund raising events.
