Hello everybody, I send you my best wishes from Prague, my home for more than 20 years. I received my Master's degree from Palackeho University in Olomouc, Czech Republic, and before joining AIFS in 2014 I worked for the Open Media Institute in Prague, the partner organization of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, making local arrangements for BBC film crews and for journalists based in Prague.
My experience of living in different parts of the Czech Republic means I am a great resource for you when you are in Prague. You will find me in the AIFS office, right in the center of the city, a short walk from the university classroom buildings and the main attractions.
Prague is a beautiful city that has something for everyone with its amazing architecture, cafés, and variety of art, music and history. I look forward to helping you make the most of your time in this magical place.
The Resident Director provides academic advice, introduces you to the community and handles communication with the University.
