my name is Eric Fossen and I am from Brazil. I am majoring in environmental studies and economics, and I am planning to do a minor in finance or accounting.
I am looking for an internship opportunity or a job opportunity in the fall or summer. One skill I can bring is leadership. I already worked back at home in a company that worked with the Brazilian government to help rescue animals that were taken from nature illegally and to reintroduce them back into nature. I was one of the leaders in the logistics and I also helped a little bit on the financial part.
I am ambitious and I want to grow as a person and be as ready as I can for my future. I will put all my time and efforts into the job, learn from people who have been in the business for longer, and improve myself.
