Sonya Ivanova

I am 29 years old, from Bulgaria. After I graduated in Interior Design in Sofia, I moved to Austria to continue my education. My life has been very dynamic and full of international contacts and many changing events ever since. I have been in IKEA Graz since March 2018, working part-time in the Bedroom Section as a Sales Co-Worker. The rest of the time I am an exhibition designer and currently planning some of the rooms in an interactive Science Centre in Graz. I love meeting people from different cultures and exchanging life experiences and stories with them. This broadens my mind and I learn something new about myself every time. IWitness is like a dream coming true for me. I always wanted to volunteer and help people in need around the world. It makes me proud to be part of the IKEA Foundation and to have the chance to contribute. I expect to gain a priceless point of view to a different world, a chance to change some of it and inspire and motivate many people around me.
