Ana in a few words
I am a communications professional with five years of experience in the Communicatios field and currently working in the international cooperation sector.
I am passionate about designing communication actions for causes I believe in. I have designed, implement and evaluate communication strategies for a variety of audiences, and produced multimedia content for a variety of channels.
I enjoy culturally diverse environments and have learned the importance of acquiring skills for conflict resolution and for managing simultaneous priorities within large and small teams. I also enjoy working independently, for which I have developed strong self-management skills through working remotely and carrying out individual projects.
