Irinas BIO:
Irina is an accomplished broadcasting professional with a background in
television journalism, digital communications and marketing, branding,
fundraising, and program development. She is a champion of social
justice, equity, and inclusion, with extensive experience in
storytelling and community building.
Before moving to Canada in
2016, Irina spent 11 years with the Serbian Broadcasting Corporation,
Radio Television of Serbia. She started as an on-field reporter and
advanced her career in television production, program development, and
multimedia journalism. Her roles included program editor, multimedia
journalist, Cultural News anchor, and Morning Show host, serving an
audience of approximately two million.
Upon relocating to Canada
in 2016, Irina transitioned to digital storytelling, marketing, and
fundraising, focusing on developing and executing strategies for brand
awareness, community building, and donor engagement. She worked for a
charity organization supporting people with mental health disabilities
and continued volunteering after leaving the role to support this
meaningful cause.
Irina’s dedication to educating others through
storytelling inspired her to start a YouTube channel and accounts on
various social media platforms. She creates content about life in
Canada, history, cultural diversity, and decolonization, with a focus on
the challenges immigrants face in a new environment, offering advice on
overcoming cultural barriers. Within less than a year, her following
grew to over 25,000 supporters across three social media platforms, and
her immigration experience was featured by several Serbian media
outlets.
