Since January 2023, I have been supporting companies in the apparel and footwear industry to adopt more sustainable practices across their value chains. My work involves analyzing EU legislative documents on sustainable textiles and delivering actionable insights to clients and partners. I also facilitate stakeholder engagement with Members of the European Parliament, the European Commission, and executives from leading brands.Previously, I worked in Public Affairs with a focus on labor markets, HR services, and business sustainability. I contributed to drafting position papers on key topics such as the platform economy, green jobs, and the circular economy.Academically, I hold an MSc in Political Science with a specialization in International Relations and Security, where my research explored EU migration issues, border control, and security. My BA in Slavic Studies deepened my understanding of Russian history, culture, and politics.
