What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to leverage my communication skills in a dynamic environment, focusing on brand strategy and media engagement.

I am a seasoned communications professional with over a decade of experience in public relations, marketing communications, and digital marketing. My career has been dedicated to enhancing brand visibility and fostering strong relationships with media outlets. I have successfully organized external communications for various clients, including shopping centers openings across Romania, and have a proven track record in crisis communication and event management.

Throughout my career, I have held significant roles such as Communications Manager at Atelierele PEGAS, a SuperBrand for Romanians - bike company, where I designed and executed comprehensive marketing strategies.

I am proud to be a media freedom ambassador and co-author of influential publications endorsed by the Council of Europe. My freelance work as a content creator and journalist has allowed me to explore diverse topics, contributing to various outlets and engaging with audiences on lifestyle, culture, and sustainability.
