What I'm looking for

I'm looking to contribute to international projects that promote human rights, equality, inclusive governance, gender-sensitive cooperation, and humanitarian support.

I've delivered intelligence reporting for the Ministry of the Interior through Bidaidea, covering cybercrime, hacktivism, jihadism, cryptoassets, and disinformation. As an Intelligence Analyst Coordinator, I managed an analyst team, presented intelligence reports, and led threat reporting, client follow-ups, and resource management.

My diplomatic and international affairs experience includes work with the Armenian Embassy in Spain, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and AECID in Cape Verde. I've prepared political and international analysis, monitored local development projects, and supported Feminist Cooperation programmes addressing gender-based violence and women's empowerment.

Through my volunteer work with Cruz Roja Española, I support migrant reception, humanitarian assistance, mediation, referrals, and psychosocial integration in multicultural emergency contexts. I bring a rights-based, gender-sensitive perspective grounded in Political Science, Journalism, International Relations, Diplomacy, Intelligence, and Leadership.
