Sorin wears many hats, but closest to his heart are two activities: he is the creator of the Scam Detector mobile application, which exposes the world’s most notorious scams, as well as his Community Liaison position with OMNI Television, where he produces the Culture Avenue show.
He moved to Canada in 2001 from Romania, where he used to be a sports reporter. He interviewed such notable personalities as Muhammad Ali, Lennox Lewis, Evander Holyfield, Marion Jones, Nadia Comaneci and Ron Wood of The Rolling Stones. Life took him to Edmonton, where he has settled… at least for now.
In 2008 he started working for OMNI TV and in 2011 he created Scam Detector, which helps over 2 million people around the globe to prevent financial fraud. The app has become a big success, being accessed from over 100 countries and winning a 2011 Consumers Champion Award from the Government of Alberta.
