Throughout my academic journey, I have actively participated in various extracurricular activities, including playing volleyball and futsal, which have helped me develop teamwork and leadership skills. I have also been involved in student union activities and served as captain of the volleyball team, demonstrating my ability to lead and collaborate effectively. My experience extends beyond academics, having worked in promotion, marketing, organization, and development of several events with AAFDL. I also collaborated as a Business Development Manager and was part of the appellant team representing FDUL at the Sports Arbitration Moot, where we finished in the top 16 in the finals held in Madrid. These experiences have honed my skills in communication, negotiation, and event management. I have volunteered with several child psychologists and pediatricians in schools to create and develop safe and friendly environments for children. This work has strengthened my interpersonal skills and my commitment to social causes. Additionally, I volunteered at the Instituto de Apoio à Criança from 2019 to 2020, further emphasizing my dedication to community service. Technically, I am proficient in Microsoft Office, Slack, MySQL, HubSpot, and Zendesk. I am fluent in Portuguese (native), English (advanced, C2), and have intermediate skills in Spanish (B1). My personal qualities include initiative, adaptability, intercultural communication, the ability to thrive under pressure, and conflict resolution. I am eager to bring my diverse skills and experiences to a professional environment where I can contribute positively as a team player and continue to grow both personally and professionally. ## Skills 17 capabilities[Business Development](https://jobicy.com/talent/business-development.md)[Communication Skills](https://jobicy.com/talent/communication-skills.md)[Conflict Resolution](https://jobicy.com/talent/conflict-resolution.md)[Customer Service](https://jobicy.com/talent/customer-service.md)[Event Management](https://jobicy.com/talent/event-management.md)[HubSpot](https://jobicy.com/talent/hubspot.md)[Leadership](https://jobicy.com/talent/leadership.md)[Marketing](https://jobicy.com/talent/marketing.md)[Microsoft Office](https://jobicy.com/talent/microsoft-office.md)[MySQL](https://jobicy.com/talent/mysql.md)[Problem Solving](https://jobicy.com/talent/problem-solving.md)[Project Management](https://jobicy.com/talent/project-management.md)[Public Speaking](https://jobicy.com/talent/public-speaking.md)[Slack](https://jobicy.com/talent/slack.md)[Teamwork](https://jobicy.com/talent/teamwork.md)[Time Management](https://jobicy.com/talent/time-management.md)[Zendesk](https://jobicy.com/talent/zendesk.md) ## Experience Career history ### Event Promotion, Marketing, Organization and Development · AAFDL 2021 – 2025Worked in promotion, marketing, organization and development of several events ### Business Development Manager · CCIPT - Chamber of Commerce and Industry Portugal and Turkey 2021 – 2025Collaborated as Business Development Manager; ### Volunteer · Instituto de Apoio à Criança 2019 – 2020Worked with child psychologists and pediatricians in schools to create and develop safe and friendly environments ## Education Learning history ### Escola Secundária da Portela 2018 – 2021High School Degree Integrated the students union for two years; Captain of volleyball team; Final Grade Average: 17 on 20.0 scale ### Faculdade de Direito da Universidade de Lisboa 2021 – 2025Bachelor's Degree in Law Final Grade Average: 15; Erasmus in Poland - September 2024 - January 2025; Played Volleyball all 4 years and Futsal 2 years This professional hasn’t added portfolio projects yet.
