Summary

I am a business graduate student who will be graduating in June 2024. Fascinated by multiculturalism since a young age, I chose international business as my major. I am an avid learner, frequently acquiring a wide range of skills through my computer at home, including Photoshop, video editing, and basic programming languages, which are not directly related to my field of study. My personality is characterized by humility; I firmly believe that every individual I encounter can teach me something valuable. During my time studying abroad, I didn't limit myself to academic pursuits alone. I made the most of my free time by working at Coles and participating in local clubs, further enriching my overseas experience.
