Mantas Kargelis
Portlaoise
Summary
Hardworking professional well-versed in using problem-solving and organizational skills to help operate businesses and manage teams.
On the other hand, I'm a happy family man with multiple skills/passions in life and am now looking to get back to my roots.
I used to dance as a young kid in my home country (Lithuania) and later, when I was in my late teens, I used to compete in Latin American Dancing within the Republic of Ireland. One year I even managed to become a Youth Latin American Champion of Ireland.
I hoped to continue my career in dancing, modelling and, perhaps, acting, so I picked up Dance & Drama subject in college. However, apart from seldom teaching of dancing to my friends and family, my life had turned around 180 degrees as I focused on my job career instead, forgetting all about former plans.
Hopefully, I'm not too late yet...
