I'm currently writing my thesis about the future of music distribution for my study in in International Communication Management. I believe due to my interest in these fields and my continued interest, I hold a rare expertise which I'm happy to share.

As I'm graduating from university this summer, my goal for the moment is to find a job in the music or media industry in Amsterdam where I can apply my expertise. A more personal goal is to meet fascinating individuals with whom I can exchange philosophies and expertise about business, communication and the future.

In the course of the last four years, during these studies, I've taken part in many fascinating projects and experiences, such as:

- Internship with the Bulgarian National Radio (PR & journalism)
- Research project at E.ON's corporate center in Düsselfdorf (internal communication)
- Semester abroad at Yeditepe University, Istanbul (PR & publicity)
- Web strategy development for Bulgaria's ruling party for their national elections 2009
- Internet marketing for 2AM, a Bulgarian record label aiming at the international market

I have a huge affinity with PR, social media, trendwatching and futurism and this is what keeps me ahead of the curve. I'm a music fanatic and in my free time I love to DJ. I also have a huge affinity for self-development, social psychology and networking and once co-chaired a Dutch organisation with about 200 active members that discussed and organised events regarding these topic.

I'm also a serial expat and love the adventure of living abroad. Living in different countries taught me a lot about intercultural communication and the subtleties of interpersonal communication.
