Motivation

The opportunity to contribute to the modern Lithuania’s future creation is closely related with my professional ambitions and aspirations. Internships and traineeships in The Netherlands and Lithuania gave me priceless knowledge and reminded me how important is cooperation.

I strongly believe that any nation’s future depends on the harmonious and sustainable development, which means that the current needs of society should not compromise the future of other generations. Having immersed myself in the life of The Netherlands, I felt what it means to be European, how important it is to never stop growing in a professional and personal way, to share the acquired knowledge while working in a team and to expand my awareness not only of cultural exposure, but also to constantly remind myself how much I can contribute to the development of my native country.

Participation in the “Kurk Lietuvai” program will allow me to initiate and implement public sector projects that create real changes in Lithuania.
