Notably, she engaged in a year-long project with an orphanage for disabled children in Romania, focusing on upskilling the staff to provide better therapeutic value in their day-to-day work. Her interests in Autism, different methods of communication, nature-based activities, and supporting people’s informed choices align perfectly with our values.
