Summary

An international project manager with over 10+ years of experience, my journey has always been driven by a belief in heartfelt connection and cross-cultural understanding. Having spent years coordinating international television, IT and educational projects, I've always seen my work as a way to build bridges—connecting people and cultures by producing content that truly matters.

With a deep knowledge of Lithuanian and Scandinavian culture and a fluent command of five languages—English, Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, and German—I am confident being a great fit to lead international projects. For me, the greatest strength isn't just about managing tasks; it's about a sincere dedication to every project, partner, and team member. That sincere human connection is the key to every successful project, especially in media.
