Cristina is an Intern on Fastlaners

Cristina is working on Fastlaners.

I have an undergraduate degree in International Relations and European Studies and have recently completed a Masters in Public Administration at London Metropolitan University.

As a student, I did internships with the Romanian Government and with the Romanian Embassy in Madrid and I also volunteered with the Romanian Youth Association for the United Nations. Prior to my Masters in London, I was selected for the Young Professional Scheme, a programme developed by the Romanian Government, aimed at preparing young graduates and professionals to introduce and to manage change and innovation in public administration.

I am very passionate about social innovation, especially in the field of education, and what attracted me to the Young Foundation was its efforts to tackle social problems by identifying, implementing and, most importantly, sharing innovative ideas and solutions. As a former Fastlaners participant, I am really excited to now have the chance to contribute to the development of the programme so that other young graduates can live and benefit from the Fastlaners unique experience.
