I present myself as a human being who is able to adapt to different environments and situations, who likes to learn, to put himself in the place of others. I have always worked connected to people, communication. almost 20 years I worked linked to Marketing, Sales where I was able to acquire experiences in several areas of Human Resources, accounting as well as Management. When for family reasons I decided to live here in the United States and because I didn't feel comfortable in the language (at first) I chose to use my hobby and become a professional in the area (Cooking) I started to study about the subject and started a new chapter in my professional life and the most incredible thing was that I continued to be connected to people (pass on my respect and love) through food. I am open to starting a new professional chapter with the same commitment, dedication and an open mind for new learning
