Joana Alves
Porto | Portugal
My name is Joana and I was born in Porto [Portugal], city where I've been living so far. My parents, both teachers, early taught me the importance of education and to enhance my personal and professional growth.
In 2009, I've graduated in Business Management. At that time, I had the opportunity to commit myself with several different projects and groups, that aroused in me skills such as leadership, flexibility, team spirit, time management and also people management.
I've lived in Torino [Italy] for 6 months. An unforgettable experience, where I had the opportunity to learn and grasp not only a different culture, but also a multiplicity of people with their own way of being, thinking and working.
Therefore, I keep my willing to embrace professional challenges that allow me to enlarge my horizons and perspectives. Finance and management remain on the top of my interests, being this the path I intend to steer my career on.
