►WHO I AMI’m Luca Papaluca.* Chartered civil/industrial Engineer* 2 years M.Sc. (Hons) in Transport & Safety - Urban infrastructures and Logistics* Civil & Structural Engineer, MEng, Ing. CNI► WHICH IS MY EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND?My education, my experiences and my own personal inclinations complement each other in forming a versatile and well-rounded engineer, enhanced by a supplementary intrinsic inclination to commercial and financial management: aspects quite unusual to find coupled with an engineer’s profile .► HOW DID IT HAPPEN?My education has always been scientific with multifaceted wide range of technical engineering studies.However, my strong additional background based on additional courses and internship experiences across Europe have allowed me to further develop extra-skills oriented to economics and financial management, fields where a scientific method and rational attitude are a cut above. ► WHAT ARE MY GOALS?I am always ready to go the extra mile to overachieve my goals. I aim to expand my skills and undertake new commitments which can challenge me and give me a deeper profile with standards of international level.►WHAT I AM LIKEI’m basically a curious person, highly motivated and enthusiastic attitude towards the life.I apply the rational thinking gained during my education with proactivity and optimism.I’m rather extrovert and I tend to meet people and make new acquaintances, establishing good conversations and mutual collaborations.

I led a EU-fund project of cutting edge technology related to fluid dynamics fire simulations in tunnels.* E-commerce: I run a little business on the major online shopping websites, this has given me commercial management skills and customer assistance expertise in online activities.* Tutoring and teaching: during my university days I tutored engineering and high-school students in scientific subjects (especially Maths and Physics).
