Experience

Short bio
I'm a football scout and performance analyst based in Thessaloniki, currently training with the 360 Scouting Academy, working through full-match analysis, individual player screening, and in-depth evaluations using professional frameworks. It builds on more than 15 years of coaching in tennis and with youth football groups, where evaluating players and analyzing performance from video were central to my work. I hold an MSc in Exercise & Quality of Life (Maximising Athletic Performance) and played in the Greek Women's First Division. I follow football daily across the Greek Super League and major European competitions, with a focus on clear, actionable scouting reports.

Scouting experience
I'm building a body of practical scouting work through the 360 Scouting Academy, completing structured assignments that mirror professional club tasks: full-match analysis, individual player screening, and final-stage in-depth evaluations. Each one follows the same professional workflow, which includes reading the brief, analyzing the footage, rating and describing the player, and refining against expert feedback. Selected reports from this work are published on my profile below.

What makes you stand out?
I'm a football scout and performance analyst based in Thessaloniki, with a background built on one thing above all: reading players. Across more than 15 years as a coach, my work was to watch closely and judge what a player does well, identify what's holding them back, and turn that into a clear development picture. Those are the same instincts that sit at the heart of scouting. I came to the game as a player myself, competing in the Greek Women's First Division, and I've never stopped studying it, watching football daily from the Greek Super League to the major European competitions. Today I'm sharpening my evaluation and report-writing through the 360 Scouting Academy.
