I work at the intersection of international relations, humanitarian diplomacy, media, strategic communication, and international cooperation. With over 20 years of experience across Europe, Latin America, Africa, and the Middle East, I have held operational and senior leadership roles with international organisations, humanitarian networks, and civil society actors, including the ICRC, IFRC, Médecins du Monde, Goethe-Institut, Amnesty International, and MEDASSET.

My work is driven by a belief in communication as a public good: strengthening independent media, promoting informed public debate, building trust with communities, and translating complex humanitarian, political, and institutional challenges into meaningful dialogue, effective strategies, and lasting partnerships.

Most recently, I led Innovation.Media.Minds., a €3.3 million EU-funded programme implemented by Goethe-Institut in partnership with DW Akademie across six Western Balkan countries. The programme supported public service journalism, media innovation, and cross-border cooperation, bringing together public broadcasters, European institutions, and regional stakeholders.

I am currently a PhD candidate at Neapolis University Pafos, Cyprus, researching “Broadcasting Resilience: Public Service Media as Instruments of Democratic and Epistemic Security in the Western Balkans.” My research builds on my professional experience and examines how public service media can contribute to democratic resilience, information integrity, and public trust.

This portfolio brings together selected interviews, media appearances, field stories, published articles, and strategic communication work. It reflects my continuing commitment to humanitarian principles, human rights, democratic resilience, and international cooperation.
