Hi everyone, my name is Irina (or Ira for short), and I’m happy to be here! For the past three years, I’ve been working as a marketer at an independent media outlet, the job is unpredictable, sometimes stressful, but exciting. I currently live in Europe (in Italy, to be precise), and I want to immerse myself in the local (I mean european in general) context of work with social impact. I feel that working on socially meaningful initiatives is what I want to do with my life (my attempts to work in marketing agencies and commercial projects have only convinced me of this even more), so I’m currently looking for projects I could join as a communications specialist, an audience engagement expert, and someone who can explain the essence of an organization’s work to the public in plain language. I love identifying people’s needs and figuring out how to meet them, and I know how to listen attentively and be sensitive to the person I’m talking to. I believe that genuine care is the foundation of good NGO marketing. I look forward to finding like-minded people in the community and, perhaps, future colleagues! Feel free to reach out to me via LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/irina-karabach And if you are in Milan, let's grab a coffee sometime (I know some very nice places) ☕
