Summary
I am an organised, reliable, and conscientious person with experience in international and customer-facing roles. I have worked as a Conference Assistant at the United Nations Office at Vienna (UNOV), a Team Leader of conference staff for the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization (CTBTO), and as a Receptionist at Casino Baden.
Through these roles, I have developed strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively with people from a wide range of political, cultural, and geographical backgrounds. I am comfortable assessing situations quickly, prioritising tasks, and responding appropriately in fast-paced environments. My experience has also given me a good understanding of how communication styles and expectations differ across regions, allowing me to interact professionally, with sensitivity and integrity.
