Apart from being a translator and interpreter I have had working experiences in several fields, and you can read about them later on on this page. This has allowed me to become extremely versatile when it comes to working and also has put me in touch with very different terminologies. This fact comes now extremely handy when I am translating projects referring to specific subjects.
February 2006 – Turin, Italy, XX Winter Olympic Games – Member of the Protocol Crew at the Palasport Olimpico in Turin
January 2002 – January 2006– Municipality of Orvieto – Conference and Events Bureau I was in charge of secretariat for the Local Conference Centre (200 working days a year with events from 20 to 1000 people) and promoted the local conference center to perspective clients I worked on four editions of my hometown main events such as an award to the best foreign correspondent of the year, and a nine-day food and wine festival in cooperation with Slow Food attracting thousands of visitors from Italy and abroad. I was in charge of: liaison with printers, secretarial work, staff recruitment and management, hotel reservations, clients bookings and ticketing ,final accounting.
December 1996 – December 1999 – Sales Agent for the advertising Agency of the local daily newspaper “Corriere di Viterbo” I developed a portfolio of approximately $ 150,000 in yearly sales, an amazing figure for a new agent in a studio that had already been operating for ten years with several agents in a small province near Rome. My tasks also included writing advertorials .
From 1985 to 1989 I lived in London, UK and worked as :Reservation supervisor for Italian Escapades,(1988-1989) a tour operator specializing in made-to-measure package tours to Italy . I was selling package tours over the telephone and coordinating sales office personnel. Bilingual Secretary for Alfred Dunhill ltd, (1988)a corporation with business on several fronts, I was working for the merchandise manager in the leather division and, I was also in charge of liaison with suppliers for spare parts and repairs as most of the suppliers were Italian. Reservation Clerk for Island Sun Ltd, (1985 –1988) a tour operator specialized in package tours to Islands of the Mediterranean sea. That was my first job, I started by selling package holidays over the phone to British clients . After one year I was also put in charge of booking reservations for the “Tour of Sicily” where I also looked after the hotel rooming lists and bookings and coordinated the groups in Sicily itself.
Other current activities involve my great passion for basketball, which I played in my school years. I have been a basketball official for fifteen years now and took part in International Competitions and Major League Matches. I now work on local matches and am a qualified instructor for young officials. I have managed to conjugate my passion for this sport with my experience as an event manager: I organize local basketball tournaments and work as a Tournament Manager with A.S. Sportevents, a company specializing in youth basketball tournaments in Italy and Spain , dealing with paperwork, bookings, accounts .
