OUR TEAM
Who are we?
Behind the scenes of the Science in the City festival, is a dedicated team who strive to create a fresh and exciting event every year, one that resonates with people from all walks. A festival that is sensitive to the challenges we all face in today’s world and that inspires all of us to make the changes we need to overcome these challenges.
Core Team
We unfortunately don’t have a magic wand to conjure up this science and arts festival. But we do have an incredible team of creative thinkers and problem solvers, working tirelessly to bring you the best possible experience.

I am the co-ordinator of the Science in the City, festival, an academic, co-run the science communication STEAM Summer School, involved in several large EU funded projects, and have created and managed several science communication events through the NGO the Malta Chamber of Scientists, and much much more! I want to embed a culture of public engagement and research that benefits society.

Originally from Turin but currently living in Malta! I hold a degree in Intercultural Communication and a master’s degree in Public and Political Communication. My work experience includes EU projects, start-ups, digital marketing and much more! My current work involves managing a group of international interns. If you don’t find me at the office, I am probably at the gym! I love cooking, hiking and any physical activity. I always seek new stimulates and Science in the City is one of them!

Hi, My name is Pavol. Regardless of where interns’ passion lies, the SitC project provides plenty of opportunities. I would like to spread this notion by contributing to the management of operations, that is, avoiding misleading unfortunate situations, reducing errors, and supporting a data-driven approach to interns’ assessment.

The Festival Manager has been working on the event since 2012 along with other sci comm activities.

Greetings, my background is in payments and accounts and I am currently helping out with taking care of collecting and spending the money. I am as old as Science in the City and I have been around since the first festival in 2012. Cheers for the past ten successful years and many more ‘ten’ years to come.

Hello, I’m Daniela. I graduated in Advertising. I came here all the way from Brazil, and I’m Intern Manager Assistant. I enjoy working directly with interns. The Science in the City Festival is a great learning experience for all of us.
Current Interns

Hi, my name is Ana, and I am originally from Croatia. Currently in Malta as Science in the City intern. I hold a BA in Production of Audiovisual and Performing Arts from the Academy of Dramatic Art and an MA in Anthropology and Ethnology from the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences. I am driven by endless curiosity and motivated by goals. Professionally I aim for sustainability and productivity, and personally, towards a balanced and inspiring life.

Hi! My name is Amy. I volunteered at the ‘Science in the City’ festival last year, where I participated in gathering data for the improvement of future events. This unique experience paved the way for my growing interest to form part of the organisation, a choice which has led to the development of new skills, and the opportunity to invest in my writing skills.

Hi, my name is Jan-Marc Bleck. I live in Hannover Germany, where I finished my medical studies last year. I am also a musician and a member of an art collective. At Science in the City, I take care of social media and public relations, as well as being the contact person for several organizations.

My name is Sarah Hyeon-A Kim! I flew all the way from Canada to intern at Science in the City… and it was so worth it as it is an amazing opportunity to meld my interests in both arts and sciences! Aside from working, I’ve become friends with the most incredible people all over the world, got my PADI diving course, and got an insane tan 🙂

Hiya! My name is Bartek, originally from Poland but currently pursue a Biomedical Science degree in Sheffield, UK. Science in the City offered me not only valuable experience in social media, creative writing, website management and admin stuff but also priceless memories! Working in the multicultural team was one of the best experience in my life. I could not make a better decision by choosing Science in the City.

I am Fikayo Oyewale, a part-time intern working for Science in the City all the way from Nigeria! I hold Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Animal Science. On top of that, I am interested in practicing and promote science communication. At Science in the City, I write articles, produce and edit videos, and I am also involved with evaluation.

Hi, I’m Nicole, I’m currently a student at MCAST pursuing a bachelors in health and social care management and an intern with Science in The City. As an intern I take care of logistics and organisation and I love it
