As a receptionist, administrative and travel manager I got the opportunity to be involved in the logistics of attending the travelers, securing that their stay was well planned and also learning to take part in a team while working alongside agencies and other institutions.

During my time in Casa Glebinias I developed several competencies such as working under strict schedules, dealing with several amount of tasks simultaneously and the daily contact with people (such as travelers, suppliers, travel agents, etc) helped me gain social skills to interact with different people in different situations.

My responsibilities and tasks were welcoming the guests as well as being there for their departure, arranging itineraries, administrative tasks, creating content for the hotel's social media, taking reservations through the various ways of communication and above all being always attentive and at disposal of the guests.

As an intern during my last year studying at Universidad Juan Agustín Maza I worked in the Corporate Communications Team for seven months.

I gained experience in being responsible for the University's image and also being aware of the importance of a clear, respectful and rapid communication between the different areas and authorities. My tasks within the team were to check and send corporate emails, cover social events, organize meetings, follow up the content in social media and also I got to put into practice my journalism knowledge when needed such as writing articles for the press about the University's contribution and progress on education.

During an internship for my degree in Journalism I worked for a local TV network. I was in charge of the daily posts on social media for the networks´ official page as well as editing videos, articles and images. During my time there I got the opportunity to be part of the team responsible of the coverage of a famous local festivity while taking care of interviews, meetings, itineraries and crating content.

While working for a local magazine and for a national broadcasting corporation I learned to handle multiple duties like news coverage, attending press conferences, doing and writing interviews and having a broad knowledge on social and cultural affairs in Mendoza. The main lesson I took from these experiences was how to communicate to a broad audience and readers the daily activities, issues and matters of social importance in a simple, correct and effective way.

As a volunteer (momentarily replacement for one of the official radio journalists) I helped the team in arranging meetings between the members and also between the guests, I also did interviews and took care of content for the program.

My responsibility was to be of support for producers and guests in making preparations for the broadcasting as well as being present during the show in case my assistance was needed.
