The ARC not only prepared me for my future career, but most importantly provided me through its active and dynamic environment with a curiosity and willingness to ever explore and learn.

Thanks to the University of Nicosia and ARC, I have gained the knowledge, tools and experiences that have helped me to pursue and develop an international career in my field, always consistent with my character and understanding.

UNIC was the first place where I got interested in sustainability and resilience to extreme weather events, a subject which turned into my career choice later on. I am currently pursuing a PhD in Sustainability and working in the research network that investigates resilience to weather extremes in the US.
