About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To share the best of me with the best of the world!

ABOUT ME

For more than a decade I have worked for the Cultural Section of the U.S. Embassy in Sofia, Bulgaria (doing exchanges and administering a donor program for Bulgarian NGOs). This reminds me to share that I've gotten dual (Bulgarian and American) citizenship, but I chose to live in Bulgaria. Lately, I've been working as a free-lance lecturer and consultant in soft skills, proposal writing, and project cycle management. I am now a chairperson of a Bulgarian NGO (www.vvifoundation.org) and I travel in Europe for Erasmus+ projects from time to time. I have a splendid family - a wife and two gorgeous small daughters.

PHILOSOPHY

I have borrowed the Kurt Vonnegut's "It is impossible to make a mistake," but I want to reverse it in a way to sound more positive - something like "The right things are always possible!":
