Thank you for visiting my account🤝 I am a Food R&D and Quality Specialist with a technical background in product development, food safety, and quality systems, combined with hands-on experience in procurement and retail-oriented environments within the food industry. I am driven by the awareness that we must rethink the way we produce and consume food, as it has a profound impact on human health and the environment. I strongly believe that eating is, to some extent, a political act with important social consequences. I have a learning-by-doing mindset, which I continuously nurture by attending professional courses, deepening topics I care about, and staying up to date with emerging food trends. Working directly in the field is, of course, a fundamental part of this process. My Core Expertise: 📍 Technical: Food Safety, Microbiology, Thermal Processing, and Quality Systems (IFS, BRC, ISO 22000). 📍 Innovation: (field of studies), NPD, Pilot Trials, Sensory Analysis, focus on Sustainability & Packaging. 📍 Technical–Commercial: Supplier management, SAP, and Food Retail dynamics. I lean towards roles that connect technical expertise with business needs, acting as a link between R&D, quality, suppliers, and commercial teams.
