Summary

With a track record of high-level leadership and advocacy, I have represented youth at local and national levels as President of the National Student Parliament and Svetits High School Student Council. As a Hungarian youth delegate to the Council of Europe's "Democracy Now!" campaign, I demonstrated international diplomacy skills in prestigious civic forums. My co-authored research on "The Use of Artillery in a Doctrinal and Tactical Context" showcases my analytical precision and military-historical expertise, earning a special prize from the University of Public Service (NKE). Organizing many events locally and even on national level highlights my initiative, event planning skills, and dedication to sustainability issues, all crucial competencies in civic and professional environments.
