Curriculum Vitae – Drs. Éva Lilla Kronauer

Translator, cultural manager with 30 years of international management background


30 years of international senior banking and finance and the same time I lived for my passion on cultures, cultural heritage, culture & language tutoring either via my entrepreneurship, or via the Associations I established and run such as the Hungarian Weekend School in the Netherlands, or now the ADRIA Intercultural Association mainly focusing on Hungarian-Italian relationship and on the Hungarian Weekend School in Veneto.

I graduated as MA (drs.) of European Studies and Culture Management. Some years ago, I left banking and since 2017 I have been offering my service as a translator and language tutor in languages of English-Dutch-Hungarian.

Since 2019 I have been living in Italy.
