Her field of experience is in the area of communication and has been working in the tourism field for more than 15 years.

Later she elected to work for an airline company, where I had the chance to have direct passenger contact as well as gaining experience in sales, marketing and pricing.
Her education is related to foreign cultures and languages. After High-School she moved to Spain, where she attended a 2 years Course at the University of M�laga on the topic of �Spanish language and culture� and on �Tourism Management� skills.

Always attracted to foreign cultures, she learned other languages in her spare time, attending courses of French and German.
Daily basis job being never the same, she finds it challenging to deal with Officers from all over the world, getting to know different traditions, experiences and backgrounds. She finds that this particular environment allows opening minds and she is looking forward to working with IFCC for a long time!
