Armela Shabi
Reporter and journalist from Albania, recently relocated to Hamburg. Bachelor in Public Relations and Marketing Communication, several years of on-screen experience for leading Albanian TV stations — now looking for an internship to learn the German media landscape from the inside.
I grew up in Laç in northern Albania and studied Public Relations and Marketing Communication at Bedër University in Tirana. For several years I worked in front of and behind the camera as a reporter and panel guest for major Albanian TV channels — telling stories about people, society and culture.
The reason I am in Hamburg is a personal one: love brought me here. I am now determined to make this city my professional home as well — to learn the German media landscape, to grow as a journalist and to bring my experience from the Albanian TV world into a new context.
Several years of TV experience in Albania — from political talk shows to lifestyle and cultural programmes.
Regular on-air appearances, story research and reporting on social issues, lifestyle and political talk formats. Conducted interviews and live segments under tight broadcast deadlines, working with editors, producers and camera teams.
Foundations of IT security, digital safety and online verification of sources.
Online professional academy programme, completed with certification.
Major in Public Relations and Marketing Communication.
GPA 9.37 / 10. English exam B2 with grade 9.55.
Recognised as one of the best students in Albania by the Prime Minister (2015).
Runway appearance at Paris Fashion Week.
International title, awarded in Turkey.
International title, awarded in North Macedonia.
Award presented by Prime Minister Edi Rama for academic achievement.
I am currently looking for an internship in the German media industry — reporting, editorial work, communication or PR. I would love to hear from you.
Based in Hamburg, Germany.
