Work experience

I've been taking part in trainings, exchanges and projects within my organisation as a trainer, facilitator or coordinator focusing on subjects such as game-based learning, prevention of peer bullying, drama for social cohesion, peaceful classroom, etc.

Recently I've actively coordinated the local implementation of a 2 year long, EU-co-funded project for the "Establishment of a transnational network of adult education providers for the promotion of social inclusion of vulnerable groups, Project Step Up".

I've worked in many fields, and in many different positions and I enjoy taking place in multidisciplinary and international working environments.

Some of my professional initiatives are listed below (please check out my cv for detailed further information):
- project coordinator, trainer
- actor for theatre and television
- freelance interpreter
- language instructor and assistant at the university
- early childhood teacher
- customer relations and social media management for a nature-based boutique hotel
