My legal name is Sirena (aka Mermaid in Italian), but everybody has always called me my nickname, Nina. It's kind of weird, but then I remember that Superman has two names and I feel better about it.
I’ve always seen myself as a creative jack-of-all-trades, but instead of settling for ‘master of none’, I’m always itching for new opportunities to improve my skills and grow in my career.
So, if you're looking to hire someone who's motivated, passionate about great ideas and who's sense of style can help prevent office life from feeling too mundane, then I'm your gal!
