Ioana David
Project Manager
With a Bachelor’s degree in Romance Studies (French), an interdisciplinary Master’s in Global Studies, and a passion for travel, she loves discovering new perspectives—whether in society and culture or while wondering why weekends always seem to fly by faster than expected. Before becoming part of the team, she successfully balanced intercultural teamwork and organizational tasks as a project coordinator for a non-profit organization supporting migrant women in Graz. In her free time, you’ll either find her somewhere in the world with a psychological thriller in hand or on a determined quest to find a hobby that doesn’t feel like exercise—so far, with limited success.

With one foot in a yoga pose and the other in the joy of travelling, Jasmina skillfully juggles between yoga flow and different languages. With a bachelor’s degree in sociology and a master’s degree in global studies, she not only brings know-how to the table, but also valuable experience in national project management. Thanks to her creativity and green thumb, she not only sprouts different ideas, but also plants of all kinds. When she is not creating a pun or sorting books and folders by color, she is possibly thinking of a sustainable idea or enjoying time in nature.
