Youth mentor

I mentored numerous young people with disadvantaged backgrounds for finding volunteering and learning opportunities abroad granted by EU; thus empowered them personally and professionally.

Project manager

I have project management experience on 20+ youth and adult learning projects under Erasmus+ programme, two of them are shown as “good practice” by the EU.

Learning event coordinator

I coordinated 10+ intercultural learning events for youngsters and youth workers on various social topics such as anti-discrimination, interreligious dialogue, tolerance, empathy and global warming.

More about me

My core values are unity, creativity, personal growth and serving the community. I take constant actions around these values.

I would love to work on projects those challenge me to think creative and find novel solutions in a collaborative teamwork ambient. I work best with open-minded, diverse teams with flat hierarchies those value freedom and authentic connections among team members.

I am passionate about holistic wellbeing and a fan of meditation and spirituality.

I question all stereotyped thought systems and status quo with an open mind.

I believe compassion and empathy can save the world.
