Summary

Driven by a passion for soccer and an insatiable thirst for new challenges, my international experiences have shaped not only my linguistic proficiency but also deepened my understanding of diverse cultures and lifestyles.

With a solid work ethic and well-developed social skills, I adapt quickly to high-pressure environments, ensuring excellence and agility in learning and executing new tasks.

My professional journey has been significantly enriched by the opportunity to work in marketing and administration for a Major League Soccer team, as well as coaching a U-14 competitive team. These experiences have been crucial in developing not only my resilience and adaptability in the face of varied challenges but also essential skills such as time management and task focus.

Dealing with different facets of the sport, from brand management to youth athlete development, has reinforced my ability to navigate successfully in dynamic and demanding environments.
