Summary

As a Mechanical Project Engineer at General Organization for Land Reclamation of Orestiada, I work on various projects related to land improvement, irrigation, drainage, and flood protection. I collaborate with other engineers, contractors, and stakeholders to ensure the quality, safety, and efficiency of the project execution. I also apply my knowledge and skills in renewable energy sources (RES) to design and implement sustainable and cost-effective solutions for the environmental and energy challenges of the region. I hold a Master's degree in Business Administration and Management from The University of Bolton, where I gained valuable insights and skills in strategic management, leadership, innovation, and entrepreneurship. I also have a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering from the International Hellenic University, where I developed my technical and analytical skills in construction, mechanics, thermodynamics, and fluid dynamics. Additionally, I have four years of experience as a freelance writer, where I honed my communication, research, and project management skills. My goal is to leverage my diverse and interdisciplinary background to contribute to the development and improvement of the communities and sectors I serve.
