What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a role where I can lead projects end-to-end, coordinate diverse teams and partners, manage delivery risks and budgets, and improve how work gets done.

At Registrų Centras, I manage multiple projects from planning and resource coordination through execution and long-term maintenance. I oversee internal teams and external contractors, manage budgets, analyze markets, and anticipate risks.

I previously coordinated a 50-member community at Women4Cyber Lithuania and led planning for Cyber Piknikas, a cybersecurity conference attended by 80–100 participants. I built and led a five-person team while supporting member interviews and onboarding.

My technical background includes incident response and process automation at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Lithuania. As a junior Python developer, I automated reports, built business-process tools, and developed video and image-processing pipelines.

I also lead volunteer guide teams for Open House Vilnius, preparing schedules, resolving issues, and connecting volunteers with organizers. I bring practical experience in team coordination, stakeholder communication, and delivering work from idea to operation.
