I am an urban planner with eight years of professional experience in climate-resilient urban development and municipal infrastructure projects. I have worked extensively on internationally funded programmes (EU, World Bank, EBRD), providing technical assistance to municipalities and public institutions in areas such as water and wastewater management, climate adaptation, and environmental planning.

My expertise includes climate change risk assessment, development of climate-resilient strategies, and integration of nature-based solutions into urban systems. I have contributed to project preparation and implementation processes, including feasibility studies, logical frameworks, and monitoring and evaluation (M&E) systems.

I have hands-on experience in supporting institutional capacity building and organisational development for municipalities and utilities. This includes designing and delivering stakeholder engagement processes, facilitating workshops, and contributing to participatory planning approaches.

I am also experienced in environmental and social compliance, including the preparation and implementation of ESAPs, ESMMPs, and other international financial institution (IFI) requirements. My work has involved close coordination with multidisciplinary teams and stakeholders across the public sector, private sector, and international organisations.

In addition, I have a background in spatial planning, including the preparation and coordination of master plans at different scales, and integrating infrastructure planning with spatial and environmental considerations.

As a freelance expert, I am particularly interested in contributing to projects related to climate resilience, sustainable infrastructure, and capacity building, especially in developing and transition contexts.
