Mill Park,Australia

Summary

I have a strong academic background in economics, complemented by in-depth knowledge of management and marketing theory. This interdisciplinary foundation enables me to approach complex problems with both analytical rigour and practical insight. My experience with real-world management challenges has further enhanced my ability to apply theory to practice, particularly in the context of market dynamics and market behavior. I am especially interested in exploring how psychological and behavioral factors shape decision-making processes. As a fast learner and highly motivated, I thrive in collaborative environments and bring a strong combination of quantitative analysis and strategic thinking to research and practice at the intersection of economics, marketing, and behavioural science.
