Alexandra Pellanda is a fast worker. Perhaps her efficiency has something to do with the five years she spent working as a video journalist with a private television station. She knows how to function and find solutions under pressure. But she is also a team player who understands how to bring the threads of a project together. Alexandra coordinated the new design of the Biovision website, which she saw through from intial concept to completed homepage. If she were now to train as a PR professional, it would be a logical development of her strengths. Her design of television articles is proof of her flair for conceptual work. She also demonstrated her ability to write concise and incisive texts during a period of voluntary work with Zürichsee-Newspapers. Before her employment as a journalist, Alexandra – with the university entrance exam under her belt– worked in the administration of an airline company.
She perfected her knowledge of English during a two-month language course in New Zealand. Before she took on the job of PR professional and Web Editor with the Biovision Foundation, Alexandra Pellanda travelled in Mexico, as well as in Thailand, Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia. „On my travels I discovered what it means to be happy with very little. I met so many people who start anew every day and who live with great serenity.“ Alexandra Pellanda has taken a leaf out of their book. Even when everyone wants something at the same time, she doesn’t get stressed – which helps even if you do like working at a fast pace.
