Meet Simone at today’s Team Thursday!

What is your background?

I have completed a Bachelor and a Masters in International Relations in Turin (Italy). I spent many years abroad, particularly in Israel and Lebanon, after my first experience in Uganda – Kampala – where I worked with children. In the last few years, I gained experience as an assistant to Project Coordinators. I have also been employed as Project Coordinator on a program designed to help Syrian and Iraqi refugees relocate from Lebanon to Italy and France.

What is your involvement with PROJECT-E?

I just joined the Talent Management team, and I am glad to be part of it. I hope to be able to make a positive contribution and to have an impact for the sake of the team, and, indirectly, all of PROJECT-E’s beneficiaries.

What are you passionate about?

I love to read about politics, particularly concerning the Middle East: I lived there for many years and therefore am very much interested in what is going on in that amazing region. Sitting down with a book and a cup of tea is just what I love to do.

Apart from that, I enjoy playing and watching basketball: it is a real passion of mine.
