Born in Malta of Maltese parents, I went to school and University in Malta where I graduated with a B.Sc. degree in Physics and Mathematics in 1978. I have been living in Italy for the last 28 years working in the fields of Information Technology (the computer industry) and the telecommunications industry in the town of Ivrea in the North of Italy. Over the years I have had the opportunity of gaining experience in a number of fields within the company, such as technical writing (in English), software programming, International Marketing of software products, purchasing and contract management (including contract drafting and negotiation) and International business development.

Thanks to the languages that I know, my scientific education and my corporate experience, I have developed over the years a translating and interpreting profile that is of particular interest in the fields where I matured my academic and professional experience.
