I am a Membership Development Manager at the Italy-America Chamber of Commerce West (IACCW), where I create and implement strategies to increase the number and diversity of members, as well as enhance their engagement and satisfaction. I work with a team of professionals who share a passion for promoting trade and cultural relations between Italy and the US, especially in the West Coast region.I have a Master of Public Policy degree from UCLA Luskin School of Public Affairs, with a focus on foreign policy and immigration policy, and a Bachelor of Arts degree from UCLA in development economics and international development. I leverage my research and development skills and expertise to address complex real-world challenges and to contribute to the IACCW's mission and vision. I also have a keen interest in international relations and glocal policy which I developed from my academic studies and my participation in various conferences, workshops, and projects related to these topics.
