Background

About Pablo Valarezo

I am a Client Service Coordinator and have served as Project Manager with over a decade of experience working across international, nonprofit, and faith-based organizations, supported by advanced academic training in Global Affairs and Security.I have served as a Project Manager at the Italy-America Chamber of Commerce Southeast (IACCSE), where I manage and coordinate cross-cultural initiatives, and support U.S.–Italian business relations through event planning, communications, and stakeholder engagement. In parallel, I work as a Client Service Coordinator at the Catholic Leadership Institute, supporting leadership development initiatives across the United States and internationally. My responsibilities include collaborating with Church leaders, coordinating logistics, managing client relationships, coordinating speakers and workshops, and fostering meaningful communications with diverse communities.My professional path is deeply shaped by my Catholic faith, which informs my commitment to service, ethical leadership, human dignity, and the common good. Earlier in my career, I served for several years as a seminarian in Florence, Italy, where I engaged in evangelization, catechesis, community outreach, interfaith dialogue, and fundraising initiatives in multicultural environments. These experiences strengthened my cross-cultural competence, pastoral sensitivity, and ability to lead with purpose and integrity.I also bring experience in logistics, operations, and regulatory compliance, including roles in aviation maintenance coordination and client coordination programs across multiple U.S. states.Academically, I am pursuing a Master’s degree in Global Affairs and Security at Florida International University, with research interests in transnational crime in the southern hemisphere, migration, and the intersection of technology, ethics, and national security. My work emphasizes policy analysis, strategic thinking, and evidence-based research.Fluent in English, Spanish, and Italian, I excel in cross-cultural communication, relationship-building, and project coordination. I am driven by a vocation to serve, build bridges across cultures, and contribute thoughtfully to addressing complex global and security challenges in an interconnected world.
