I’m Yara — a multilingual communication and marketing specialist with a background in Communication Science and a strong focus on community, culture, and social impact. I work at the intersection of strategy and creativity, helping organizations tell meaningful stories, build trust, and connect with diverse audiences. My experience spans digital marketing, stakeholder engagement, event production, and research-driven communication across nonprofit, cultural, and corporate spaces. Alongside freelance work, I co-run Valkyries Floor Angels, a harm-reduction and safer-nightlife initiative, where I design trainings, workshops, and community-centered interventions. I care deeply about ethical communication, inclusivity, and using media as a tool for positive change. Whether I’m working on a campaign, an event, or a strategy document, my goal is always the same: create communication that is thoughtful, human, and grounded in real people’s experiences.
