"There are no ideas, there are only people who carry the ideas, and they get the height of those who carry them. I believe in the power and the voice of the team and exchanging ideas. I was a team leader and project manager for AIESEC of Athens, one of the biggest student exchange volunteering organisation. Before the start of my engineering and researching career, i used to work for a swiss company, where again i was managing the teams for their onboarding. Management is doing things right, where leadership is doing the right things. As a greek philosophical girl, my values rely on free and endless talking, enjoying participation, laughing and learning secrets from all the world. I am settling down on an even better university community with collaborations between the departments and social events, especially for Campus Grimstad where there is a significant lack of connecting the community. As a south person, passion and motivation are strong assets. Respect and democracy are considerable values. Being diverse is cool, like the pandas, so be a panda!

People is the key. I believe in leadership and exchanging of free ideas. This opportunity will help me growing personally and professionally throughout my soft and problem solving skills. I really like seeing the development on people and I am really focusing on boosting the team throughout a collective and collaborating spirit. Good luck with all the canditates and never hesitate taking risks :)".
