I am a scholar and educator dedicated to advancing modern higher education through innovation, international collaboration, and responsible digital development. My professional path connects academic research with applied practice in cybersecurity, information systems, and university management. Over the years, I have worked closely with partners across Europe — from Southern to Central and Eastern regions — building networks that support knowledge exchange, mobility, and global learning opportunities. I approach my work with openness, precision, and a commitment to creating environments where students, researchers, and institutions can thrive in a rapidly changing world.

My approach combines academic rigor with practical efficiency — from planning international projects to developing digital and organizational solutions. I value transparent communication, cultural awareness, and teamwork, especially when coordinating activities across multiple countries and institutions.
