Versatility defines this professional journey, which spans across legal assistance, transfer pricing, business auditing, program management, and procurement. My path began as a Legal & Translator Assistant at Redcliffe Partners Law Firm, leading to roles as a Transfer Pricing Assistant and Junior Business Auditor at Nexia DK Audit and Consulting.

Experience further broadened with a role as a Program Specialist at the Ukrainian Students League Charity Organization, where support was provided for internally displaced persons. The current position is as a Procurement Assistant at FHI 360 Dnipro, contributing to the Ukrainian Humanitarian Assistance Response (UHARP) project. This diverse background has cultivated a unique skill set, primed for new challenges.
