I am a senior consultant with a long proven track record (+15 years) as project manager and research fellow on EU-funded projects (HorizonEurope; Horizon2020; Erasmus+ (KAs, SPs, CAs), 6+7 FP) in the agrifood sector. As project manager, I am very experienced in planning (including writing successful proposals), implementing, evaluating and monitoring; and disseminating and exploiting project outcomes. As a research fellow, I thrive in developing and operationalising stakeholder engagement; facilitating learning and skill development (action-learning and action-research); and evaluating outcomes using social science research methods.
