I am a dynamic cultural manager and advocate with extensive experience in inclusive artistic programming, project coordination, and sustainable community initiatives. I work to promote inclusive training, accessible spaces, and I use art, creativity, and environmental education as key vehicles for social impact. I am ASD and ADHD, and I actively champion inclusive training courses and accessible environments to ensure everyone can participate and contribute. I founded CraftTopia Hub and lead its educational and artistic direction, building engagement across European cultural networks such as Culture Action Europe, ECHN, IETM, MitOst, and ENCC to foster cross-cultural exchange. With over a decade of leadership at Anazitites Theatrou/FIX in Art, I have developed impactful projects like Fill the Gap, No Food Waste, and M-eating Hub, alongside extensive Erasmus+ and Creative Europe initiatives that promote social inclusion, environmental sustainability, and accessibility.
