Florian Petrica, presentation  
I played basketball at the junior level for the Star and Rapid Bucharest.

After high school I chose to become a sports professor. In 1993, while I was a student at the National Academy of Sports, I started to work as a sports journalist.

In the same year the first sports channel appeared in Romania and I went there as NBA commentator. The Sports Channel, was changed in PRO TV in 1995, and shortly became the most successful TV station in Romania.

Being a sports journalist there, I had the chance to commentate the NBA All Star Game in Cleveland, in 1997.

In the same year I became news presenter and editor at Pro TV. This was very useful for my professional skills as a journalist.

After two years I returned to sports, because I understood that sport is my way of life. I decided to put all the knowledge I have on sports behalf. I had a great satisfaction and I am sure that I have a lot to do.

Now, working as a journalist for The Money Channel my vision is that the financial values could be converted in journalistic values, and this approach could be very useful for the values of sports.
