Summary

I'm currently studying Psychology at Leiden University, delving into the intricacies of human behavior and cognition. My journey has been enriched by a diverse array of volunteering experiences across various organizations, each offering unique insights into community engagement and social impact.

Beyond academics, I've explored different creative avenues. I've dabbled in modelling, singing, and theatre, fostering adaptability, creativity, and a strong work ethic along the way.

I'm passionate about applying psychological insights to address societal challenges, specifically the current challenges facing child and adolescent development by utilizing my varied skill set to drive impactful initiatives.

Language has been a bridge across cultures for me—I'm fluent in Portuguese, English, Ukrainian, and Russian, allowing me to connect and communicate seamlessly. Additionally, I have conversational proficiency in Spanish, which has proven invaluable in diverse settings.
