I am Reinald Udras. In my daily life, I work and study, and as a volunteer I engage in a variety of different activities. In addition to my everyday tasks, I have also stood out for my actions beyond my personal life. You can read about all of this on this page. You will also learn which companies and organizations I am currently affiliated with, as well as those I have been affiliated with in the past.
KANTAR Emor
I conduct surveys as an authorized interviewer for the company and also recruit people for various other studies. The goal is to find out and assess the needs of the Estonian population. I have worked at Kantar Emor since November 2016. During this time, I have carried out studies such as "ATLAS," "Piim," "Taru," and the Eurobarometer. In future studies, you might meet me at your doorstep, since part of my duties involves random home visits selected by the company. If you would like to participate in KANTAR Emor studies, please let me know! As an authorized representative, I have the right and ability to collect your contact information so that you can answer questions on topics that interest you, thus expressing your opinion in both the private and public sectors. All collected data is confidential, and the answers provided during data collection are not connected to your submitted information. The data is simply a means of communicating your perspective.
ETKA ANDRAS
As a member of the student council, I’m pleased to serve as a learner ambassador to adult students at the Adult Gymnasium—acting as a mentor and monitoring their achievements. Naturally, one of the council’s goals is to make school life more engaging and energetic, and as a learner ambassador, to develop the educational network for adult learners. If you have any concerns, please let me know! At the beginning of the school year, I introduce my activities to the students, and if they want or need to, they can always reach out to me with their issues or questions.
Me Elsewhere
I have been written about and involved in other companies and areas of activity as well. For instance, Prisma Peremarket, where I worked for three and a half years, wanted me to appear in a commercial for their functioning "Prisma konto." The filming took place in the spring of 2011. In the video below, you can see me sleep-deprived, as the shoot lasted the entire night.
On November 4, 2011, the online edition of the newspaper "Postimees" published an article about me titled "Naissõdur ja meeskassiir" (Female Soldier and Male Cashier). In the article, I also discuss gender equality issues in connection with relevant positions and roles in which I worked.

The Eurovision Song Contest is a major annual event in my life. I put together lively reports and write on-site blog posts (my "euroblog") about what is happening. My euroblog is available on my blog websitereinaldudras.ee. In 2015, I attended my first Eurovision Song Contest in Vienna, the capital of Austria. Conchita Wurst had brought the victory to Austria in 2014 at the contest in Copenhagen with the song "Rise Like a Phoenix." Naturally, there are many journalists and media representatives from all over the world at the Eurovision venue, including the Estonian delegation. My colorful presence has attracted journalists every year. In 2017, for example, TV3 created a story about me during the contest in Kyiv.

In 2018, I participated in the "Eesti Tantsib" campaign under EV100, where both students and teachers greeted Estonia on its anniversary with a fun Estonian dance.
OTHER VOLUNTEER ORGANIZATIONS AND ACHIEVEMENTS:
In 2016, I opened my missionary call with a self-initiated wish to serve, for religious purposes, two years in the Canada Calgary Mission, to which I was assigned by the prophets of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I began serving voluntarily the same year I opened my mission call. Before leaving for my mission, I published an article in the internal media news of the Eastern Europe area of the church. There, I wrote about how I was baptized and why I came up with the idea to serve a mission.
Estonian Scout Association
I belonged to scouting in 2006–2007. At the event "Jüripäev 2007," organized by the Estonian Scout Association (ESÜ) in Tartu, our "Moroni" team achieved second place in the overall orientation ranking, narrowly missing first place. The weather that day was extremely rainy and windy, providing many challenges for orientation. Nevertheless, we completed the competition successfully.
In addition to all the aforementioned activities and achievements, I also stood out at various singing contests and sports events during primary school, and participated in folk dancing as well.
