Serena Porrazzo
|
Ambassador & customer support
|
Serena is a full-time electronic engineer (holding a PhD), mum, passionate cook and runner. Being a runner and a working mum isn’t contradictory, they’re complementary. Of course, now it's more about 'making time for herself ' rather than, 'making sure she has a certain fitness for the race' but she is convinced that staying fit, healthy, and strong is crucial, for everybody. Her family has a history of kidney failures, strokes, heart attacks and hypertension.
She'd like to represent women, people, who don’t want to lose themselves. That has a need for an escape, for accomplishing their personal goals through training. Everybody deserves to pursue self-improvement. Especially if it makes us have more energy, more motivation for exploiting life at its best, the longest we can, against all the odds. |
