PROFILE
I am a dreamer. I want to be an actor in business environment, rather than a spectator.
I have been in Ireland since January 2014. Ireland is only my first step. I came here to get a job
abroad and improve my knowledge of the English language in order to allow myself to work in
international business. That’s why I quit my job in Italy, even though it was a safe and good job.
I love working surround by people, satisfying clients’ needs, doing business, shaking hands.
All of my previous work experience was involved in building a professional relationship with the
customer. Nowadays also, in my everyday job, I am developing new skills managing several different
calls and emails, including business to business calls with international companies.
