About Sam S.
Before coming to work and study in the United Kingdom, I attended the International School of Geneva. The school offered various activities to students including the Student League of Nations (SLN). SLN allowed students such as myself to take part in a mock UN Security Council and work alongside UN diplomats from various countries.After school, I moved to the United Kingdom for my university studies. I studied Drama and Education at an undergraduate level before pursuing an MA in International Communication. With this MA, I hoped to work for the UN or other Non-Governmental Organizations although I would also consider roles outside of these areas if the work appealed to me. I was working as a game tester at TT Games Publishing and my roles included French translation and Sony compliance and worked at Microsoft as a Test Associate.Since leaving the games industry, I have set up my own business as a pet sitter, dog walker and pet taxi.Specialties: English, French, human resources, invoicing, management, translation, finance, compliance, animal care
