    News Writing and the wider S.E. Europe.
    Along this road I have learned personal contacts are our most
    Languages valuable asset.
    English (Full Professional) I have grown a network of professionals contacts in politics,
    French (Professional Working) economics and media in the Balkan region that allow me to claim no
