Veronika's Story
Veronika describes herself as a lifelong learner, a curious explorer, and someone who believes that even small actions, when done with purpose, can lead to great things. My personal motto is: "Never stop fighting for what you believe in” and "We rise by lifting others.”
​
Veronika earned her bachelor’s degree in International Management from Comenius University in her home country, Slovakia, with Erasmus exchanges in Germany and Finland. She completed her master’s in International Marketing Strategy at Hasselt University in Belgium. During her studies, Veronika had very interesting part-time jobs, such as a cave guide in Slovakia, a ski instructor at Hintertux Glacier in Austria, and a lifeguard in the United States.
​
After graduation, Veronika worked as a Marketing Specialist for NGOs in Slovakia.
​
Veronika's strong desire to help others and see how people live in different parts of the world led me to Rwanda where she volunteered at a center for children from poor backgrounds. There saw a world full of kindness and humanity, but also witnessed serious environmental and social problems firsthand. This inspired her to look for ways we can help solve them, so here she now is - DREAM+PLAN!
​
Veronika is deeply grateful for the opportunities she has been given in life, and her greatest fulfillment now comes from helping create a world full of amazing opportunities for everyone.
​
Veronika hopes that being part of the DREAM+PLAN Community is 'Inspiration'. Being part of an inspiring network that encourages me to grow, never stop exploring and learning, and become the best version of herself.
