Summary

Accomplished diplomat and public affairs expert with over 15 years of international experience across senior roles in Israeli missions in the U.S. and Europe. Throughout my career, I have led Israel’s public diplomacy, economic affairs, and strategic partnership initiatives, building bridges with key stakeholders — from government officials and business leaders to media, civil society, and academia.

With a strong track record in leading high-impact public affairs teams and campaigns, facilitating bilateral dialogues, and driving collaborative projects, I bring a results-oriented approach, sharp strategic thinking, and a deep understanding of global dynamics.

I specialize in cross-sector engagement, crisis communication, and complex negotiations. Holding a Master’s in Conflict Management & Negotiation and a Bachelor’s in Public International Law, I combine diplomatic acumen with legal and policy expertise. Native English speaker, currently based in Tel Aviv.
