Pia Camardese
At MaastrichtMBA we are proud of all the people that are committed and eager to fulfill our mission in high-quality education, advice and research to individuals and organisations from all over the world. To become even more acquainted with MaastrichtMBA and to show you how it feels for them working for or at MaastrichtMBA, we introduce our MBA team to you. This time we put a spotlight on the Programme Coordinator of our On-Campus track Pia Camardese.
WHAT IS YOUR ROLE IN THE MAASTRICHTMBA PROGRAMME?
As the Programme Coordinator of the On-Campus track, I take care of the organisation of all educational activities of the programme. Because of this, I will be your contact person as soon as you are enrolled in our MBA programme. I am more than happy to guide you through your MBA learning journey!
HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN WORKING WITH US?
I have been working with the MaastrichtMBA since 2005.
CAN YOU TELL US A BIT ABOUT YOUR KIDS?
I have two girls aged 15 and almost 12 years old. Right now they want to become a doctor and an artist – so unfortunately nothing in the MBA world!
WHICH BOOK IS LAYING ON YOUR BEDSIDE TABLE?
Currently I have two books laying on my bedside table, but I haven’t decided with which one I will start with! There is All the Light I Cannot See and The Labyrinth of the Spirits.
WHAT CAREER DID YOU DREAM OF WHEN YOU WERE A CHILD?
I wanted to become a professional photographer. It is still a hobby I am very passionate about.
IF YOU COULD BE ANY ANIMAL IN THE WORLD, WHAT ANIMAL WOULD YOU BE AND WHY?
An elephant, for sure! I don’t know why… They’re really intelligent, social animals, protective of their children… It’s just an impressive and beautiful animal! When you look in their eyes, there is so much wisdom in there.
WHAT WAS THE LAST GIFT YOU GAVE SOMEONE?
An espresso machine as a birthday present for my husband. Luckily I get to enjoy it too!
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE PLACE IN THE WORLD?
I love to travel so this is a hard one… I would have to say Nepal because I did a Himalaya trek there that impacted me.
