About

Enthusiastic, empathetic, and resourceful. I thrive in creating environments where people feel comfortable, understood, and motivated to collaborate effectively. Specialized in fundraising and project planning, I enjoy keeping a strategic overview of the initiatives I manage, identifying synergies and opportunities to maximize impact and performance. Purpose is a strong driver for me. When I believe in the impact of what I'm doing, I naturally commit fully and go the extra mile. I strongly believe in the power of kindness 😊
