Head of press and communications at ISU Challenger Series 2025
ISU Challenger Series 2025
Head of press and communications for the ISU Challenger Series event organized by the Georgian Figure Skating Federation.
I’ve spoken at events all around the world and been interviewed for many podcasts.
One of my favorite ways to share my ideas is live on stage, where there’s so much more communication bandwidth than there is in writing, and I love podcast interviews because they give me the opportunity to answer questions instead of just present my opinions.
