I speak fluent French and Russian, and hold degrees in international business, Russian studies, and journalism. I’ve lived and worked in Belgium, Japan, and across Canada.

I am a starting journalist who graduated last year. I studied Journalism at Artevelde University College in Ghent, Belgium and studied Broadcasting-Radio at Fanshawe College in London, ON, Canada for one semester as an exchange student. During my time in Ghent, I volunteered at the student radio Read morestation Urgent.fm where I learned to make live radio. I started as researcher and part of the editorial team and moved my way up to co-host and host. I also learned a lot about making radio during my time at Fanshawe.
I have experience in social media management. I did my internship at kleinVerhaal, a social artistic organisation in Ostend, Belgium where I created content (photos, videos, audio) to post on their social media (Facebook, Instagram). Before doing my internship there, I volunteered with their project Radio Onderstroom where, with a little group of people, we made a podcast and live radio show. I have two podcasts myself that I make, Belgic Music and Six To See, and I also have several blogs (Belgic Music, Dreamelyne). If you want to know even more, you can visit my portfolio on ******
