Hire the Best Historians
in Italy

I am a hardworking, friendly, and outgoing historian, archaeologist, teacher, and writer with experience across archaeology, heritage, education, publishing, freelance content work, and customer service. I am English, have an excellent knowledge of Italian, and continue to improve my fluency through daily use and ongoing learning. Having lived in Italy for nearly five years, I am highly skilled at dealing with bureaucracy, adapting to new systems and environments, and managing practical challenges with confidence. My background combines academic research, fieldwork, public engagement, teaching, and professional writing, giving me a broad and adaptable skill set. I have nearly three years of English teaching experience, working both privately and through a school franchise with students of all ages, levels, and nationalities. I specialise in conversational English, and I also help children and adults improve their grammar, fluency, pronunciation, and confidence. My teaching style is flexible, supportive, and learner-focused, and I enjoy creating lessons that are engaging, structured, and tailored to individual goals. Teaching has strengthened my patience, adaptability, and ability to explain ideas clearly and effectively. Alongside teaching, I work and document professional excavation sites in Greece, Italy, the UK, and Israel, gaining practical experience in archaeological fieldwork, site documentation, research, and team collaboration. I have also worked with MOLA and Mill Green Museum, where I assisted with archives, exhibition set-up, craft activities, and public-facing work. In addition, I have experience with visitor engagement and research through Historic Royal Palaces and the National Trust, which developed my ability to communicate clearly and support educational activities for diverse audiences. I am also an experienced writer and researcher. I have published articles, maintain two personal blogs, and regularly write for history magazines. I enjoy researching and writing in my free time, particularly on historical and cultural subjects, and I am confident producing clear, accurate, and engaging content for different formats and audiences. My writing experience also includes creating articles, proofreading, editing, and contributing to children’s books, which has strengthened my attention to detail, adaptability, and awareness of tone, style, and audience needs. In addition, I have assisted in conversational AI projects, carried out market research, and completed a range of freelance tasks. These experiences have helped me develop transferable skills in research, content review, writing support, communication, and analytical thinking. They have also reinforced my ability to work independently, use initiative, and adapt quickly to new projects and expectations. I also bring many years of experience in retail and catering as a customer assistant, which has given me strong communication, interpersonal, and problem-solving skills. These roles taught me how to remain calm and professional in busy environments, work well under pressure, and provide a high standard of customer service. They also strengthened my teamwork, reliability, and ability to respond positively to different people and situations. I have travelled widely across Europe, which has strengthened my ability to plan trips, create detailed travel itineraries, and organise practical arrangements efficiently. In my free time, I also enjoy giving informal historical tours of ancient Roman sites such as Pompeii to friends and family, which reflects both my enthusiasm for history and my ability to communicate it in an engaging and accessible way.

Hi there! I'm Daniele, a professional archivist and genealogist affiliated with the Association of Professional Genealogists based in Milan, Italy. I've been working continuously both online and in-person since 2019. My languages high school gave me the ability to speak in four of the major European languages (namely, French, English, German and Italian) but also the historical knowledge necessary to give an appropriate context to the genealogical researches I offer. On the top of that, I am currently interning as a professional archivist, a career path I hope I'll be able to pursue even in the future. I have expertise contacting both Church and State Archives and have successfully completed many family history researches in different countries including Italy, the USA, the UK, France, Germany, Argentina, Uruguay and Brazil; I have also worked as a records retriever for the collection of documentation necessary to the recognition of "Jure Sanguinis" Italian Citizenship. To me, genealogy is much more than a mere recollection of birth, marriage and death registrations: family history gives us the possibility to reconnect with our roots through documents we had thought lost, and it is the only discipline that allows us to know ourselves, while also knowing our ancestors. What are you waiting for? If you're searching for a professional Italian genealogist, I'm here for you!

A life lived in a cosmopolitan way: I have always wanted to unite the passion for foreign countries and languages to my profession. After some difficulties and little successes, today I made my dream come true. When I started my studies in political science I wouldn't have never thought of finding myself working in the field of international trade. Though I was lucky enough to start working right away after graduation in very stimulating environments: first an experience at Ministry of Foreign Affairs then as an international volunteer in South America. Soon after as a researcher at university and head of the translation department of the Dante Alighieri Institute abroad. At that point, I believed that my career should tend towards political institutions or the academic worls. Instead, after having undertaken a first experience as export manager, my interest in the world of international trade has been growing. And very quickly it became a real vocation. I have worked more than ten years in the field of import / export. Like few others, I had the opportunity to work on both sides of the market: on the purchasing side as a Buyer in France and on the sales side as Export Manager in Italy. This double experience allowed me to better understand the system as a whole. Today I 'm experienced in the operation of international trade and I've acquired specific skills necessary to be able to help companies export and/or import as well as deal with distributors all over the world. If there is one thing that I have understood during my career is that an Export Manager has to be well prepared and no improvisation is allowed and I think I definitively have the skills needed and qualifying experience to move into this field with success. Moreover I'm always very keen to update my skills and I pay special attention to geopolitical changes and naturally to national and international regulations concerning trade. To do this you need to have a solid cultural and professional background in order to be able to to better satisfy customers and to be truly at the level of an authentic export manager. Today I help companies to export and offer international services through traditional and digital channels. I continue to take courses and keep up to date in order to be able to guarantee top-level services to my customers. Among the latest courses attended there are courses about E-commerce, Social Media Marketing and a course of Digital Export from the Italian Institute of Trade. If you wish to contact me to better understand the services offered by ExPortaSud, do not hesitate to contact me.
