He has worked as an interpreter, teacher and researcher. He has applied his knowledge in the business world, by supporting multilingual teams in their task of recruiting new talent. His mind has been able to adapt to his obsession for travel itineraries, combining his admiration for other cultures, mixing it all in the same cocktail of his own destiny.
