Personal Profile
As project manager during last ten years, I covered all tasks involved in the development process of an IT system, and worked tightly with all other departments. I developed considerably big projects, achieving successfully the goals, in time and within budget.

Even if my profile is clearly technical, I do not consider myself as a typical technician: I like to go out of the office and interact with customers, therefore detecting their necessities and then being able to help them in improving their business processes.

I am confident that I can accomplish these tasks in a clear and professional manner.
