Masa JAKULIN // Co-owner and COO
Equipped with a bachelor’s degree in economics, Masa skillfully balances the traditions of her family business with the dynamic spirit of a startup all while enthusiastically embracing a role on the OneLife Rally management board. Primarily serving in a Human Resources capacity, she takes pride in the OneLife Rally team for its special energy, shared values, and dedication to making tomorrow better without chasing quick profits.
Her appreciation for supercars grew over time. Initially, she casually dismissed an Enzo Ferrari her friend showed her with a "that's nice, let's move on." However, she later discerned a deeper value. Beyond being dream machines, she perceives supercars as catalysts for positive global change. If one were to encapsulate her essence in three words, they would be honesty, curiosity, and consistency.
