Inside Sales EMEA
About me:
Since I was a child, I’ve been fascinated by the art of blending ingredients to achieve unexpected results, a passion I’ve nurtured focusing my studies on materials and particularly on polymers. I’ve dedicated many years delving into research on conductive polymers for cell regeneration and as carriers for drug delivery. During this fruitful period, I had the opportunity to engage with companies interested in my research, finding great satisfaction in persuading them of the benefits of these discoveries. Since then, technical sales have been my primary focus, and to excel in this field, I complemented my expertise with business administration knowledge by pursuing an MBA in Barcelona.
My passion:
As a native of Naples, my greatest passion is pizza. Whether whipping it up at home or indulging with friends at a restaurant, I find immense joy in the culinary experience. I’m also drawn to the sea, as I’m addicted to all forms of water sports and adore pristine beaches wherever they may be found.
