What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that fosters innovation, values diversity, and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am a dedicated professional with over four years of international experience in Law, Business Management, and Intellectual Property. My journey has taken me through various roles where I have honed my skills in legal support, project management, and compliance oversight. Currently, I serve as a Management Assistant at Scuolufficio Sas, where I support the manager in implementing projects and handling HR and contracts.

Previously, I worked at the European Patent Office, providing legal and procedural support on European Patents and the Unitary Patent system. My role involved drafting communications and legal decisions, as well as developing interactive digital procedural handbooks. I take pride in my ability to deliver comprehensive administrative support across various functions, ensuring that all tasks are executed with precision and attention to detail.

My educational background includes an LL.M. in Intellectual Property Law and a Master’s degree in Business Management. I am passionate about innovation and diversity, and I thrive in environments that value collaboration and creativity. As a language enthusiast, I am fluent in multiple languages, which enhances my ability to work in diverse teams and contribute effectively to international projects.
