Freelance creative communicator
I have been running my side gig as a creative communicator since 2016, coordinating communication campaigns for start-ups or nonprofits, managing website build-ups and developing content strategies. Occasionally, I would contribute with articles revolving arts & society or do some photo work.
I have been the recipient of an Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs Grand, in Dublin, Ireland, collaborating with Rather Gather.
During the same time, I have been part of 3 art residencies:
- with the Museum of Art & History Zalau – case study of my final exhibition
- with WHW Akademija – see my article
- with Marin Art Centre – coordinated the communication campaign and facilitated a photographyĀ workshop for teenagers.
