Additional Information

After the difficult process the press have had went through and the 2023 election results, I no longer believed in the freedom of press, I sought a new path in my career.
As someone who has worked in the journalism profession for more than 20 years, I would like to transfer my skills and professional experience to projects in private companies. I believe that I can contribute with the contacts I have established over the years with all political circles, foreign diplomats and embassy employees and that I can do this with my strong representation ability.
