SACROFANO

Summary

My academic focus has always been economics, but my true passion is travel. This led me to earn a Master's degree in Tourism and Territory: economics, marketing, and eco-sustainability at Luiss Guido Carli University in Rome. I've built my career through roles at EF Education First and Octorate, where I developed expertise in sales, consulting, and client management. These experiences have equipped me to work effectively both independently and within teams, consistently meeting ambitious targets.

I believe success comes from passion, collaboration, and strong team spirit. I aim to continue growing internationally through continuous learning and professional development.
