Attention and concern for my daily activities gave me the possibility to gain always new knowledge and skills and a high attitude in fast problem solving, even under pressure.
My current job, a daily interaction with my colleagues and with Italian and US science team of the SHARAD mission, gave me the chance of developinga good team spirit. Moreover, I’ve been playing football for eighteen years and learnt the meaning of constantly pursuing team goals.
