After gaining professional experience in European planning in France from 2009 to 2016, he embarked on a diplomatic career. In her early years she worked at the General Directorate for Italians Abroad and Migration Policies at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation.
In 2018, he took up the position of Deputy Chief of Mission at the Italian Embassy in Kenya and Deputy Permanent Representative to the UN in Nairobi. Subsequently, at the Italian Embassy in Canada, he held the position of Head of the Consular Chancellery (2021-2022), also dealing with the coordination of the consular network in Canada.
Before diplomacy, Gomiero coordinated a project at the NGO Eurocircle, for children and adolescents, in France.
