About Me
I'm a Polish expat living in Germany. For the past 5 years I've been managing international communities and have an extensive background in project management, team leadership, marketing, and customer support.
Back in Poland, I was running my own company with up to 10 employees. I reactivated it during my maternity leave and managed to position myself as an expert in multilingual upbringing. I'm still supporting Polish families raising bilingual children all over the world, just to a smaller extent than before. I absolutely love all things linguistics and have tried learning 8 languages so far, but my strongest are Polish, English, and German.
With my strong intercultural communication, negotiation, and persuasion skills, I'm very effective when it comes to customer engagement. Creating the best experience possible for members in my communities is something I strive for every single day.
