As an adept project manager with a robust foundation in securing EU funding, shaping organizational growth, and orchestrating seamless project administration I bring a proven legacy of steering triumph in projects and harmonizing an array of dynamic activities. I have a degree in Political Science (UNI-LJ, Slovenia) and a Master of Science in Business Sciences (UNI-LJ, Slovenia).
As a project manager in the project office team at NIB I focus on pre-award phase including the search for public funding opportunities, as well as advice and support of researchers throughout a proposal preparation on national and international funding programmes. My work involves understanding European institutions and ongoing collaboration with the European research community. Furthermore, I collaborate on the 5xPRO project, which aims to strengthen the competencies of project officers and enhance the excellence, interdisciplinarity and international integration of the Slovenian research community.
My professional pursuits revolve around the intricacies of project management, the dynamics of project funding, and the cultivation of knowledge through the exchange of best practices.
