About

Desde que me lembro demonstrei interesse pela área financeira e, apesar dos diversos obstáculos tanto pessoais como financeiros, fui capaz de me focar sempre em resultados e soluções ao invés das adversidades. O meu percurso é constantemente planeado de forma a atingir o meu objetivo de ser Team Leader / Manager. A verdade é que desde muito cedo reconheceram a minha capacidade de análise e de trabalho de equipa e, ainda no meu primeiro emprego, alcancei a minha primeira grande conquista nesse passo – ser responsável de departamento! Por isso, invisto frequentemente no desenvolvimento das minhas capacidades de forma a crescer tanto pessoal como profissionalmente e poder assim ajudar e contribuir igualmente para o desenvolvimento das pessoas que me rodeiam. Para mim é fundamental ser produtiva e alcançar as minhas metas por mais difícil que seja o caminho. Mas mantendo sempre uma relação de equilíbrio entre a vida pessoal e profissional pois ler, pintar, fazer puzzles e meditar são também atividades importantes na minha vida.
