Cześć!

My name is Maria, and I grew up in Poland. I studied and lived in Scotland for four years before moving to the Netherlands for my clinical psychology degree. I have always loved helping people, and that's why I decided to become a recruiter and join Adams in 2022. I enjoy spending time outdoors and being active, but there's also nothing better than watching a good movie after a long day!
