Education
- Master’s degree in African studies (University of Copenhagen, Denmark)

Motivation
I believe that the best way for Lithuanian society to progress is by actively cooperating with other countries across the globe. Over the past seven years, I studied and worked in the field of international development cooperation, with a particular focus on Sub–Saharan Africa. This experience made me realize, that Lithuania has a lot of untapped cooperation opportunities with this continent, and other developing regions of the world.
The main reason why I am joining the “Create Lithuania” program is the desire to help my country expand and strengthen our global relations and realize untapped cooperation opportunities in countries that Lithuanians know too little about. Because of this, my main goal in this program is to contribute to initiatives that will help Lithuania become a more globally active and aware country.
