      Owner

      After moving to a small city in Sweden to study, I had limited possibilities to pursue a creative career. I found a gap in the market where I could use my skills as a photo retoucher and set up my own business to serve international clients and ad agencies. After years of following my passion, I decided to leave my business behind in Sweden to work full time in Luxembourg.

      Jul 2014 - May 2017

      Eduk8 is a project created by Erasmus Student Network, which develops its selected members into trainers. I attended a week-long session in Cluj-Napoca, Romania where I learned about non-formal education methods and self development. Since this session I have used my skills in several platforms, both voluntary and professionally, of which the most notable were a 3-day training session in Skopje, Macedonia where I co-designed and facilitated HR-related workshops; and a youth forum in Tyumen, Russia where I educated students on setting up their own NGOs.
