Renata Cheptene

• Background

The main expertise of my work are the Capital Markets. In 3 years of experience in this field, I have followed two distinct directions – Compliance, and later, PR and Communication. A career in this field has been my dream ever since I started university.

I have graduated Academy of Economic Studies being specialized in International Economic Relations. During the time spent at university I was focused on developing my interest in linguistics. Being a native Russian speaker, I knew that this might be a huge leverage in my career path. I have obtained a Certificate of a Translator (from Russian to Romanian) issued by Ministry Of Culture in order to gain formal qualifications which would utilize my knowledge, skills and enthusiasm, and bring me a step further to my planned career.

• Career Path

It is well known that power attracts and I, like many others, have become enchanted by the power of the written and spoken word. This fascination has created a deep interest in media, and Public Relations provides the perfect outlet to develop my skills. I have heard enough about the media industry to realize that experience is everything, and as a PR Manager, my current position held, I gain regular experience of media content and meeting deadlines.

I have often belived that nothing is impossible, if you ask me “Where I would be in the next 5 years?” is asking too much. I am a reliable person, I strive to always keep a positive attitude and have the ability to learn quickly, so where I would be in the next 5 years is quite hard to predict now. Like Dan Schawbel says “Learn from the past, live in the present and build your own future”, I empathize with this view and seek to achieve it using my chosen profession and the power of the media.
