"Upon graduating in economics and EU studies, I joined the EU Institutions quest, where I touched upon most areas of implementation of the EU budget. 

Passing an EPSO competition represents a significant milestone and a decisive turn in my long-term career path. 

In my current job in the General Secretariat of the Council, Directorate-General Economic and Financial Affairs I deal, as part of an outstanding team, with the adoption of the EU budget and related legislation. Supporting the rotating EU Presidency in finding compromises within the Council and with relevant stakeholders, taking part in negotiations in view of agreement reaching, is clearly a gripping experience. As a specific file, I was in charge of the revision of the Financial Regulation, the backbone of EU finances. 

Overall, it is a very dynamic environment, with its challenges, however definitively gratifying at the end of the day.”
