What I'm looking for

I seek creative roles in film and cultural projects where I can lead short-film production, support exhibitions, and coordinate events within collaborative, multicultural teams.

I am an award-winning filmmaker and multidisciplinary artist with a background in classical music and extensive experience producing short films, documentaries, and exhibition work across Europe. I combine technical editing and projection workflow knowledge with strong organizational skills and intercultural competence to deliver polished film and cultural projects.

My work has been selected and awarded at international festivals, and I bring hands-on experience in event coordination, portfolio preparation, and promotional materials. I thrive in collaborative, multicultural environments and apply empathy and crisis-management skills developed through care work to lead creative projects with sensitivity and precision.
