Matilde Assandri
Pisa
Summary
Individual with foundational knowledge in languages and hands-on experience gained through academic projects and collaboration in family business.
My experience abroad changed my ways of communication, independence and adaptability.
This adventure gave me the courage and self esteem to start a path abroad, especially in the city where I spent a year: I fell in love with Portland and the people I've bonded with, that could certainly provide references about my reliability and personality.
I would personally consider myself as a creative person, but very detailed-oriented at the same time. Always been a fast learner with an open mind and a humble approach.
That's why I think I could give my best in creative and fun, but organizational fields.
