My skills have improved on the job as in-house lawyer, up to the role of data protection officer of Mediamarket SpA (leader in Italy for consumers electronics goods), the italian subsidiary of Mediamarkt Group.
For 9 years I used to be Head of Legal Affairs of Unichips Italia SpA and Head of Privacy Coordination of the homonymous Group, owner among other things of the S. Carlo brand, which produces and markets chips and snacks in Italy and abroad.
During that time, I was appointed member of the Board of Director of the European Snacks Association, a Brussels-based trade association representing around 80% of the European savoury snack market.
