My name is Annalisa Olivieri and I was born and raised in Italy. Since from a tender age, I have always loved the English language, and I have always been fascinated by America. Apparently, at age four I declared to my mother, "When I will grow up, I will go to live in America!" It's safe to say that my mother didn't really believe me much at the time, but my determination won out, and here I am now, a graduate from an American college. Following my love for languages, especially the English language, i decided to pursue a career in editing, writing, and translations. I recently graduated with a major in English and a minor in Editing from Brigham Young University. As a foreigner, it was not always easy to try to learn English in such a deep and particular level, and I often found myself as the only International student in my classes. But I loved learning about the intricacies of the English language and i would do it all over again. I hope that i will be able to continue towards a career that will allow me to use the skills that i gained , and that will allow me to keep learning about English as i grow professionally.
