Summary

After obtaining my Swiss Federal Certificate of Proficiency of winegrower in 2023, followed by a year's internship in a winery and as a viticultural employee, I'm looking for a new experience abroad before joining the Superior School in Changins (Swiss School of Oenology). Thanks to my knowledge of winemaking and viticulture, I'm able to master cellar work and deal well with customers. I'm always ready to learn new methods and techniques in winemaking and communication. I am available to start work at the beginning of the 2026 harvest.
