I am a social worker specialized in family intervention and I have always been passionate about working in the social sector, hence why I studied Social Work and have done some volunteering. However, my interest towards understanding the psychological features of human behaviour drew me to enrol into the MSc of Psychology of Mental Health at the University of Edinburgh, which I have recently completed. I consider myself to be resilient, caring and passionate about working with people and it was my personal experience that made me choose a career focused on helping and improving other people’s lives.On the other hand, I have one other passion: traveling, which made me want to move abroad to get to know other people. Living in another country is both challenging and rewarding, but it has helped me grow professionally and personally.
