ANGELICA

FOTIOU
My name is Angelica Fotiou, I was born on the 28th January 1984 in Zurich. As the daughter of a Greek father and an Italian Mother in Switzerland, known here as a real “Secondo”, I have successfully managed to balance the three different cultures and languages since I was a child. After my apprenticeship with professional “Matura” then with Zurich Insurance Company Limited in Zurich in year 2003, I gained a lot of professional experience in different sectors such as insurance, banking, consulting and advertising / public relations etc.. I have an extensive range of knowledge to offer using different languages such as German, English, Spanish, French, Greek and Italian which allows me to directly and openly communicate with different people and cultures in the commercial industry. After the completion of my higher education “Leadership and Management” at the KV Business School in Zurich, from 2016 to March 2018, I will be also able to prove my practical skills.
