About me
"Destiny defines, but the rest is up to me!" said Miguel Torga, a Portuguese writer. I have completely embraced the deeper meaning of this statement and made it the moto of my life, personal and professionally.
Born and raised in Braga, I soon fell in love with all the possibilities and opportunities that travelling brings us: people, culture, traditions, new and different approaches, landscapes...
English, Italian, driving, cooking and photographing are definitely my passions which balance my everyday life.
With all the projects I have brought to life I sometimes ask for that 'special one', but then I look into my daughter's eyes and I smile because I have been gifted with the true one that shapes all my actions. 💚
I have a degree in Economics , I can speak Portuguese, English, Italian and French and I have worked in Banking and Direct Marketing in countries such as Sweden, France, Norway, Italia, US and others. I have fallen in love with home textiles in 2000 and since then they have been present in my professional life, both as a Marketing consultant and as a social and sustainable entrepreneur.
I am known for my team leader skills as well as for my organizational ones; I love developing new projects and ideas that bring new products to life, products with a proposal.
I am also the founder of 2 volunteer projects and am part of another one that brings me much joy since I am a firm believer of the power of giving back to society.
I do believe that we are all agents of transformation, what about you?
