Summary
With a background in education, intercultural communication, and democracy-focused youth work, I bring strong skills in facilitating dialogue, supporting diverse communities, and working effectively in multilingual environments. Through experience in teaching roles, cultural projects, and seminar leadership, I have gained extensive experience in navigating culturally sensitive contexts and representing democratic values with professionalism and integrity. My academic path in English and History further strengthens my analytical, communicative, and cross-cultural competencies, which together make me well suited for work in international settings.
