Sebastian Cislariu

Originally from Romania, I am a driven professional with a strong sports background in soccer. With 18 years of experience in the sport, I performed both domestically and internationally, earning numerous individual and team awards while also focusing on my education and life experience.

At the age of 16 I decided to leave my comfort zone and embarked on a journey to Trieste, Italy where I had the opportunity to play for the local soccer club and also study the Italian language and eventually obtain a degree in economics after 4 years of study at Istituto Da Vinci. During the 4 years of study, I achieved several certifications including two internships and also was selected to be part of a study group that was sent out to Cork, Ireland where we engaged with the Irish community while also working for a small business.

After graduating high school in Italy in June 2019, I received an athletic-scholarship from Salem International University, and decided to begin a new journey and pursue my studies in the U.S. In my freshman year I was nominated the captain of the soccer team and during the 4 year program I was nominated on the Dean's List 3 times in a row and graduated in 2023 with a Bachelor Business Administration -BAA degree with a focus on International Business.

Given the experience I earned while living by myself from the very young age of 16 in two different European countries I consider myself a reliable and dedicated individual with hardworking and resourceful approach. Currently speaking 3 different languages at a high professional proficiency level (English, Italian, Spanish and Romanian).
