Remember what I said last time?
We were about to leave England, our jobs and our normal lives. Our visas were about to expire, and we felt we had no other options. There have been so many attempts that haven’t worked. The ending felt like it had already been decided.
But as in any good game, there is always room for a twist. For a new level.
But then I met the Gram Games team. It was one of those coincidences that seem to come straight out of a good film script: aware of our situation, with our days numbered before returning to Italy, they decided to speed up the bureaucratic process and, above all, they demonstrated something that is not easily found – humanity.
Today, I can officially say that I’m on board.
I’m not usually one for sentimental words, but I’m really thankful to be part of this team. It’s small but powerful, practical and full of passion. I would also like to thank Ben Seck, Owen Mills, Sedef E., Benjamin Kingham and all the team for giving me the opportunity to introduce myself.
What do I expect from this new chapter?
I want to do my best in my current job. I enjoy it, I love it, and it makes me want to get up and run to work every day (literally).
I want to explore new technologies, especially AI. I think it’s a really important skill for my job and I want to study it in my free time. I’ve been working for 20 years, so I know how important it is to keep up to date.
I want to keep growing as a professional and as a person. I’ve had a lot of determination and good luck so far, and I want to keep that up.
I would also say that this new chapter is happening in a place that I am really excited about. London is a unique city, full of stimulation, where it is impossible to get bored. I love the beauty I can find in this city every day.
If you are going through a difficult time, know that sometimes all it takes is a door that opens unexpectedly to change everything.
To everyone who has supported me recently, thank you.
Special thanks go to my best power-up of my life Clelia Ragosta
If you’re curious about the outcome, feel free to write to me. I’d be glad to chat about it.
If you like happy endings, stay tuned.
