Karidja Cherif

Abidjan, Riviera Palmeraie

Summary

As a third year student at IPAG Business School, I have recently earned a Business Management certificate from UCSC Extension in California. For the rest of the semester, I'm seeking to join a company during an internship of 5 months from 15th of March to end of July in logistics or business development.

Dynamic, motivated, and results-driven, I would like to develop strong skills in supply chain management and global trade through both my academic journey and professional experiences. Having worked in fast-paced and international environments, I have gained expertise in market analysis, strategic sourcing, and contract negotiation.

With a strong sense of adaptability and problem-solving, I thrive in collaborative settings where I can contribute effectively while learning from experienced professionals. My goal is to apply my knowledge in logistics and international purchasing.
