My name is Riccardo Ferri, I am 26 years old and I'm from Italy. I arrived in Australia on a Working Holiday Visa in September 2023. I'm a enthusiastic, friendly and hardworking person who always strives to achieve the highest standard possible at any given task. I am willing to work and available, ready to listen and learn new things and not afraid to put myself out there.
Below I attach my work experiences I have had since arriving in Australia.
Thank you for your attention
