Raffaela Schmied

BACKGROUND

Originally from the Dolomites in Italy, multilingual and multicultural, I am a stroller at heart and a traveler in my spare time. After a Master's degree in Foreign Languages and Literatures, I chose France as my adopted country and moved to Paris in 2009. An internship in the press department of the Centre Pompidou taught me the basics of the press attaché profession on the job. My career continued in an international press agency, then led me to various architecture agencies as a communication manager (Jakob+MacFarlane, Dietmar Feichtinger Architects - among others).

In 2016, I dared to launch myself into self-employment by specializing in the field of travel and tourism. I notably managed the tourist office of my native region, South Tyrol, as a communication consultant for its brand image in France. I also collaborate with ENIT, the Italian national tourism agency.

In 2021, I completed my skills with training in SEO web writing.
