Work experience

Bill Kalantzis

- Commercial building Services Company (C.B.S.C.) (1990-1993)
I worked for this company for three summer vacations. My job was to survey buildings and promote a variety of different designs for new constructions. It was very hard and competitive work requiring communication and computing skills. In this work I learned basic skills on computers and I improved my communication skills.

John Tselios

- Metal Constructions and placings (1995-1996)
I worked for this company for one summer vacation. My job was to place metal structures like (windows or doors) in commercial buildings and offices. The experience I gained from this work was very good. That is because I learned to work effectively, under pressure and comply with instructions. My technical skills were improved with the guidance of my superior and I had for first time the experience to work in a group with 9 professional Engineers.

I have been interested in basketball since the age of 10. At the age of 15 I enrolled in a local basketball team. There I learned to follow my coach instructions and improve my technique. At the age of 17 I started playing tennis and the summer of 1995 I was rewarded with a gold metal in a Pan-Hellenic tennis turnua. At the age of 19 I started body building training. Since then, I improved my physic and learned more about muscle training.
