Working days

Monday to Thursday
I moved to Switzerland from Italy in 2006, after growing up, studying and starting work in France.
Before joining EPFL in 2015, I worked mainly in the private sector, in France, Italy, and Switzerland. 
In my position as an administrative assistant "labo", I learned a lot about the specific administrative needs of research laboratories and researchers, as well as the challenges they face.
Being able to contribute to the discussions and decisions that shape the present and future of our institution is an additional source of motivation for me.
