I am a procurement and project management professional with 8 years of experience in donor-funded programs, particularly within USAID and World Bank projects. My expertise lies in procurement processes, compliance, vendor and contract management, and operational support.

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in International Relations from Prague, Czech Republic, and have worked across diverse sectors, including construction, innovation ecosystems, and economic development. Over the years, I have gained hands-on experience in procurement planning, stakeholder engagement, and process optimization, ensuring efficient and transparent operations within large-scale projects.

My career highlights include:
Procurement Officer at USAID Financial Innovation Program – Managing procurement strategies and compliance.
Procurement Officer at USAID Economic Security Program – Promoted within a year for outstanding performance in procurement and vendor management.
Project Assistant at Georgia’s Innovation and Technology Agency (World Bank Project) – Contributed to project implementation and procurement processes.
Administrative & Project Support in a Construction & Renovation Business – Developed strong organizational and coordination skills.

I am a responsible, detail-oriented, and collaborative professional who thrives in environments where teamwork, respect, and efficiency are valued. I am highly adaptable and always eager to learn, grow, and take on new challenges.

Beyond work, I love hiking, traveling, cooking, reading, and outdoor activities. I also enjoy spending time with my dog and engaging in creative pursuits like drawing.
