Berni Pasquali
At the head of the events outreach and coordination team and back-office assistance, his charism and kind heart not only help bridge new corporate relationships but strengthen those within his team. He is a soccer fanatic, coach, and player who on and off the field never fails to teach us the true value of a team player.
Gianna Ziegler
Gianna is a dynamic individual characterized by her strong, resilient nature combined with a genuine kindness and empathy towards others. Her determination and readiness to tackle challenging tasks head-on make her a formidable presence, yet she maintains a friendly and considerate demeanour that endears her to everyone she meets. This balance of strength and warmth not only enables her to handle difficult decisions and hard work with grace but also makes her a cherished team member and a positive force in the lives of those around her.
Hassan Sohail
At the head of back-office management, with his humor and light hearted attitude, we are not sure why we hide him away! He has a real knack for computer logistics, numbers, and content management. He has a strong love for the gym and Dua Lipa, you can always count on him to lift your spirits and play a great working playlist
Oliver Coffa
At the head of school/corporate outreach and coordination and web design, his creative and charming nature make for the perfect representative. As a soccer player and fan, his encouraging, "go get it" attitude not only inspires but is a main driver in our team reaching their goals.
Stefana Sabau
A jack of all trades, handling anything and everything from back office, to events, to communications, and more. She is truly a staple to the City Lights team. With her well-rounded knowledge, quick thinking, and hands on nature, there is not one crisis that she couldn't solve and not one bad day she couldn't cure with her humor.
