Experienced education and project professional skilled in program management and creative design.
What I'm looking for
I am an education and project management professional with experience as a teaching assistant, homeroom teacher, and deputy country director overseeing child education, healthcare, and school rehabilitation projects. I combine classroom experience with nonprofit leadership, donor reporting, and stakeholder coordination to deliver measurable impact for children and communities.
In recent years I've expanded into creative and remote roles — managing social media, completing an Interior Design Diploma, freelancing in interior design, and providing virtual assistant services — bringing strong organizational, AutoCAD, and communication skills to both operational and design-focused work.
