This month, I had to make a tough decision about my career. I was feeling really down about my design work, dealing with clients, and the fact that my last project, Blureo, didn't work out at all over the past year. I realized it was time to move on. I'm still a bit involved in smaller things, but I knew I needed to make a bigger change because I wasn't happy with where I was, and it was making me feel terrible inside.

After thinking a lot and talking with my business partner, Tudor, I decided to do something different. I still want to help him, but I needed time to think about what I wanted to do next. And I came up with an idea. My new project is called "Trebevo". It's going to start as a free resource for people who are struggling to start and run a tech business. It'll have information and interviews with people from the tech world. I got inspired by some other projects like Startup School by Y Combinator, Failory, Killed By Google, and Fireship. I was afraid to talk about it before because I never did with my previous work. But now, I want to change that and build in public this time.

Let's talk about Trebevo. The name comes from combining "Treble" and "Evolution" and I actually came up with it by accident almost a year ago in the process of rebranding Teckstar. I kept it on the shelf, thinking I might do something with it someday and here we are. I want this to be my main brand going forward because I really like it, and I've already registered it across all social media platforms, as well as securing the '.com' domain. It's the first brand where I don't need to add 'group' or something else to the handles and it's also good for search engines, which is important.

Trebevo serves as a spiritual successor to my first venture, Takameru, which isn't around anymore. I aspired to transform Takameru into more than just an agency, but unfortunately, I fell short. This time around, I'm determined to actualize that vision and make it happen.

```

Trebevo will focus on tech and be friendly to people starting businesses. I want to provide resources and build it up the way I should have with other projects. I think it's a great name with lots of potential and a great idea. I'm excited to hear feedback and see if people are interested in having a hub for resources related to tech and all my projects in the future.

One thing's for sure, Trebevo is my way of saying I'm #builttobuild, and I won't stop until I've turned my ideas into reality. I hope one day to have a portfolio of companies that help people and make life easier. Come along with me on this journey, and let's build something amazing together.
