What I'm looking for

I'm looking for an operations, HR, project, communication coordination role where I can support stakeholders, improve administrative processes, and grow in an international environment.

Ciao from Brussels 🇧🇪

I’m an Italian based in Belgium, with a background in Political Science and International Politics and experience across communications, project support, administration and event coordination in international environments.
Over time, I discovered that what I enjoy most is being the person people can rely on — whether that means helping solve practical problems, coordinating moving pieces, supporting colleagues, or making sure things run smoothly behind the scenes.
I particularly enjoy roles where organisation and human interaction come together. I like dynamic environments, practical challenges and situations where I can help create a positive experience for people. I also discovered that I work well under pressure and genuinely enjoy the energy that comes from making things happen.
Beyond work, I’m interested in psychology, personal development, creativity and communication.
