Riccardo works not only with his mind, but his heart. As a colleague who sits next to Ricc, there is almost daily communication with Ricc. He never fails to help out other colleagues and me in the smallest of requests, be it, how one posts print-screens on the mobile phone (BTW, he is our in-house I-Phone expert) or designing posters for events. You can count on him to give the right advice in the simplest manner, and very often, he personally gets involved in actually doing things for us. We both share a common job scope as Staff Advisors to a students interest group, the European Culture Group. He has endeared himself to the young adults by his constant jokes, adept use of Singlish, and Italian cooking sessions. They call him Papi. And I would dare say that they adore him 3 His talents are many. One would describe Riccardo as being professional, creative, adaptable, and humble. At the Centre of Transcultural Studies where we both teach, Riccardo has set up modules in Italian and Spanish, using both classroom and e-teaching methods. He gives lectures in Transnational Studies, and facilitates executive courses in cross-cultural management. His classes have all received highly favourable feedback. His cv will tell you more. To me, it tells about his adventurous spirit and willingness to try out new things at new places. Brava! Riccardo is indeed an asset to the organization that he works for, and more than that, he is a great guy! You go, Ricc!

Riccardo is a meticulous and passionate operator. Always clear what are the end goals so his approach is always purposeful and clear. A super clear communicator, He makes himself understood so people around him are clear what must be done to achieve the big goals. Totally reliable and strong work ethics once he is invested in the projects!
