About

I am a Project Manager with a proven track record at KANTAR, where I led cross-border projects, shaped strategic plans, and steered full project lifecycles from initiation to delivery. I optimize processes, boost team performance, and leverage Power BI to turn data into actionable insights for stakeholders.

Throughout my career I have worked across Azerbaijan and the Czech Republic on multi-country engagements, collaborating with suppliers and cross-functional teams to ensure timely delivery and high-quality results. I enjoy turning complex problems into clear plans, building strong client and team relationships, and continuously improving how we work to achieve measurable outcomes.
