What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can lead education and youth programs, coordinate projects and events, and support policy-aligned community initiatives. I want a collaborative team that values detail, reporting, and measurable impact.

I am a Manager of Education, Culture, Sports & Youth Affairs with extensive public administration experience in local government. I contribute to policy design and document preparation while coordinating programs and projects across education, culture, sports, and youth affairs.

I am skilled in project implementation, responsible education support, event organization, reporting, and collaborating with multidisciplinary teams to achieve program goals. I bring strong critical thinking, leadership, and problem-solving abilities to ensure initiatives run smoothly and deliver impact.

Through my roles at Tetritskaro Municipality City Hall and as a Main specialist, Projects Coordinator/Volunteer, and Integration program participant, I support project facilitation, citizen consultation, correspondence, and weekly tutorial course activities. I also have experience conducting interviews, collecting and managing data, and organizing meetings.

I stay engaged through international training and programs, including Acting Across Borders, Including YOU!, and StartNow Library/Internship-related learning. My professional approach is well-organized, detail-oriented, and grounded in collaboration, negotiation, and presentation-ready communication.
