I work at the intersection of internal communication and project coordination, helping global teams stay aligned, informed and able to deliver.

My background is in internal communication within complex, regulated organizations, where clarity, governance and stakeholder alignment are essential. I’ve supported strategy launches, leadership communication, town halls and ongoing internal channels, working closely with communication managers, leadership teams, agencies and vendors to ensure messages are well crafted and executed.

A large part of my work has focused on the coordination behind communication: managing content calendars, aligning stakeholders, supporting approval workflows, coordinating vendors and translations and ensuring the right information reaches the right audience at the right time. I’m working with platforms such as SharePoint, Viva Engage, and collaboration tools and I value structure, transparency and follow-through.

I’m particularly interested in how internal communication supports employee confidence, engagement and effective
decision-making. In my work, I bring a people-oriented mindset combined with a structured, delivery-focused approach.
I’m motivated by roles where communication is treated as a strategic function that enables teams to move forward.

Currently, I’m strengthening my project management foundation through CAPM certification preparation.
