Production Intern
Insight TV is a renowned 4K UHD TV network that specializes in reality, lifestyle, and documentary programming, broadcasting its content to audiences in numerous countries worldwide. In September 2022, I was thrilled to join the Production department as a Production Intern, where my creative and editorial skills have enabled me to assist the producers in producing high-quality content. The challenging and fast-paced international work environment in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, has been instrumental in enhancing my creativity and skills, making me more confident and better equipped to realize my dream of becoming a TV producer.
Social media & Marketing Coordinator
Since 2017, the BEST Foundation has been an integral part of my life, providing me with a voice when I felt voiceless and instilling in me the confidence and open-mindedness necessary to become a communicative and effective young professional. Through the foundation’s leadership program, I honed my organizational and leadership skills, and subsequently joined BEST as an intern, eventually rising to the position of coordinator.
A year after completing my internship, I assumed the role of Marketing and Social Media Coordinator, overseeing the communications department and spearheading numerous successful promotional campaigns. Throughout my two years in this position, which ended in May 2022, I demonstrated my ability to manage interns and develop stunning visual designs, including motion graphics and digital content, all of which can be found across BEST’s social media platforms.
With my signature style and creativity imbued in every post, video, and story, I am proud to have contributed to the success and growth of BEST.
Executive Producer and creator
Chaos is my passion project, a gripping audiovisual story that explores complex themes of grief, hate, addiction, revenge, and heartbreak. As a student at NHL Stenden, I directed and produced a scripted drama web series, that premiered in 2023 on Matters.frl. I poured my heart and soul into the project, crafting a visually stunning and emotionally resonant series that speaks to the power of human relationships. I believe that Chaos will inspire and move audiences, encouraging them to reflect on their own experiences.
“Chaos” is a gripping original web series that tells the powerful story of Chaos, Olivia, and Alex, three best friends grappling with the aftermath of a classmate’s suicide. Over four intense episodes, viewers are taken on a journey through the days leading up to and following the shocking event, as the characters navigate psychological trauma, addiction, and heartbreak.
Executive produced and directed by newcomer Nedyalko Panayotov, and produced by rising talents Lasse Cornelius, Martin Stefanov, and Hayley van Gend, “Chaos” boasts stunning cinematography and jaw-dropping plot twists that will leave audiences on the edge of their seats.
Through its heartbreaking storylines and powerful performances, “Chaos” is sure to move and inspire viewers, shining a light on the difficult realities of grief and loss.
