What I'm looking for

I seek roles that integrate cultural analysis and sustainability with community impact, offering collaboration, project responsibility, and opportunities to develop cross-sector initiatives.

I am a certified ethnologist with a strong foundation in sustainable development and cultural analysis, experienced across public and private sectors including healthcare, municipal projects, and community initiatives. I am proactive, creative, and adaptable, with hands-on experience in project work, learning evaluation, and cross-sector collaboration gained through internships and frontline care roles.

I have co-founded a local study circle on sustainable living, supported clients in eldercare and disability support, and worked in retail and service environments where I developed problem-solving, organizational, and communication skills. I seek to connect people, culture, and sustainability in roles that value community impact and collaborative project development.
