Summary

I am a driven and focused student at University of New South Wales Business school, ranked #1 business school in Australia, where I will complete a Bachelor of Commerce (International). My team mates and colleagues know me as a motivating person, focused on finding new and innovative solutions to problems throughout my journey at UNSW. I have experience in sales and hospitality which has acclimated me to a fast-paced work environment. I am currently employed at Gebr.Heinemann, one of the world's leading travel retailers, where I have gained thorough insights into the key skills for an employee. I plan to major in International Business and Economics, and will undertake a one year exchange where I will study abroad and gain insights to the political, economic, and cultural aspects of global business.
