I am a communications and education specialist with international experience in training design, curriculum development, and intercultural communication. After relocating independently to China, I progressed from delivering training to leading the design and implementation of large-scale educational projects. I am known for my clear communication, adaptable thinking, and hands-on approach to project management — even while balancing full-time work and new parenthood. I am passionate about culture, learning, and helping others grow. I enjoy discovering new tools and experimenting with AI and tech trends in education and have a strong interest in creative design and developing play-based activities for early childhood learning.
