Our Team

Alessandra Giancaterino

President

Our director has more than twenty years of experience in education and language translation, including specialisations in psycho-pedagogy and legal translation. Alessandra is continually updating her experience and is knowledgeable about new technologies and teaching methodologies. She has studied and worked with people from a wide and diverse range of cultural and social backgrounds within countries such as Spain, Italy, the United Kingdom and the United States, amongst others. Her passion is to support and provide new personal and professional opportunities to those who need them most, motivating them to believe that achieving their dreams is possible, despite their current circumstances and seemingly insurmountable obstacles. Driven by this passion, Alessandra founded Conexión: Creando Puentes in 2014 with the support of those who, like her, want to participate in promoting a more equitable world, where diversity is synonymous with acceptance, respect and parity.
