Thank you for meeting with me. [new paragraph]. Sincerely yours,
We need to be much more concise in English; we don't usually end letters with such lengthy formalities as one does in Italian.
I would leave out the word "professional". I would hazard it goes without saying, and it sounds stilted in English.
Note, I am not completely convinced that "incontro" means a "professional meeting". It might be an interview, or even some kind of organized event. You may need to adjust my translation (if chosen) depending on this factor.

And of course, Sincerely yours can also be
Yours truly,
Sincerely,
etc.

: la lettera sembra più in tono confidenziale che formale.
