About 

I'm Mayor degree in Architecture.

I gradueted in University of Architecture, Ferrara in 2010 and I had a six month exchanging program in KTH, stockholm and three month of exchanging architecture program for my thesis at Mercy University, Detroit.

Self initiative oriented, yet with a strong desire to work in collaboration with my team.
Willing to improve my leadership skills to interpret, organize and execute projects implementation concepts.
Proactive: I prioritize and manage task to anticipate deadlines.
