Professional experience:
I teach practical work at the Medical High School “Jane Sandanski” from Stip. It complements great with my engagement in the civil sector.

In the civil sector I work mainly on issues related to the disease of cancer and people who have it, especially its early discovery. At the organization “New Life” in Stip I coordinate a number of projects for discovering the breast and the cervix cancer. I have also been actively engaged in the work of the Centre for mental support to people with cancer for five years now. At the moment, I am working on designing a new regulation for screening examination for early discovery of the cancer, which is part of our efforts to reach the EY standards and values.

I grow flowers, which I like very much. That relaxes me a lot, too.

Opening a hospital in our town for those who suffer from cancer.
