Czech Environmental Partnership Foundation is a non-profit environmental organisation. I work in the Living Soil project, which aims to stop the massive degradation of arable soils in the Czech Republic. My role is to consult the soil conservation measures, to write articles about soil on the project's blog, or to maintain the data in the Salesforce system. We also started Platform for Regenerative Agriculture, for which I created and maintain the website.

FameLab is an international contest in communicating science. I applied with a 3-minute stand-up called "Microplastics and where to find them". The national final will be on September 26, 2023.

I won the contest for the best student scientific work with my Bachelor thesis about microplastics in the Outer Hebrides.

With my team REmoteCULT, we won the Copernicus Hackathon with our idea to use remote sensing to monitor the recultivation of closed mine areas.

During the stay in Vienna at the Department of Geology, I was preparing soil samples for microplastics analysis using enzymatic digestion method, and working with FT-IR spectrometer Bruker Lumos II.

I spent one semester abroad at the University of Ljubljana in Slovenia. I attended the following courses: Geography of Slovenia, Physical Geography of Karst, Geoinformatical Support to Decision-Making, and Environmental Geography.

For a couple of weeks, I worked at this small family-run organic farm, where I tried different things, from feeding the animals, collecting eggs, and helping with the sheep, to gardening.

I participated in two work parties in which we maintained the sand and stone road up to the hill, created a  new road in ferns, built up a dry stone wall, built a new stone road, and cleaned up two beaches from plastics.

I volunteered for children and youth mainly when I was in high school. I co-led a few summer camps for talented children and youth within the Mensa Czech Republic. I also participated in Salesian Youth Centre, where I led a free-time media group "Reporters", focusing mainly on writing, and I was a part of the "free club", which is an open space for children and youth meant for their safe meeting, and, for example, playing sports, table games, chatting.

My tasks as an editor-in-chief were, beside writing articles, organising the contributors, editing and proofreading the articles, and the web administration. The magazine won 3rd place at a regional competition "School Magazine of the Year".
