← Back to home I help **select Slovak students** for UWC schools and **raise funds** so applicants are not limited by family income. Active member of the Slovak UWC alumni association.
UWC is a global network of schools that brings together young people regardless of background. I attended **UWC-USA** in Montezuma, New Mexico (1993–1995), International Baccalaureate diploma. Also completed Conflict Resolution and Meeting Facilitation Training there (certified instructor).
UWC opened the door to studying in the US — **BA in Economics and Politics at Brandeis University** (1998, cum laude, Wien International Scholarship) — and then the UK — **MSc. in Economics at the University of Edinburgh** (2001, distinction in dissertation, Chevening Scholarship).
