I studied architecture at The Polytechnic University of Tirana and graduated in January 2010. I have always been a driven individual, having worked since the age of 14 and establishing my first enterprise at 18. My passion lies at the intersection of architecture and entrepreneurship. Meanwhile, I am also exploring online work as an alternative means to generate additional income and create more financial flexibility to pursue community projects.
In April 2013, I participated in a competition for social enterprises and green ideas in Albania. This competition gave me the opportunity to create a highly innovative enterprise that achieved great success in the market. Pana, the social enterprise I founded, produced unique furniture and accessories by upcycling reclaimed wood, old pallets, and discarded furniture. Pana also provided employment opportunities for marginalized individuals, who were able to contribute to our social and ecological missions.
Over the past two years, I have become increasingly involved in cultural heritage. I am excited to apply my diverse background in architecture, entrepreneurship, and community development to create effective systems and solutions that can help cultural heritage thrive.
At the same time, I am exploring the potential of online work as an alternative means of generating additional income. This would provide me with more financial freedom and flexibility, allowing me to allocate resources towards community projects that I am passionate about. By taking advantage of online work opportunities, I can balance my commitments in both the professional and community spheres, creating a more sustainable and rewarding lifestyle
