Kate brings a unique blend of international experience, academic background, and a deep commitment to security, conflict resolution, and civic engagement.
Originally from Ukraine, Kate’s personal experiences have sparked her passion for peacebuilding, security, and understanding the complexities of international relations. This passion led her to pursue a Bachelor’s degree in Politics and International Relations at Queen Mary University of London, and then to further her studies at the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies (IHEID) in Geneva, Switzerland. There, she earned a Master’s degree in International Affairs, specializing in Global Security.
In addition to her academic path, Kate has also gained practical experience in Kyiv, Geneva, and Berlin, which equipped her with the skills to navigate complex political environments. She also has a passion for languages that translates into her dedication to communication and understanding across cultures.
