Summary
At Fairfield University, we dive deep into the complexities of international business, a field I am passionate about and actively pursuing a Bachelor's degree in. Currently honing my leadership and project management skills, I thrive in environments that demand both strategic thinking and meticulous attention to detail.
My academic journey at The London School of Economics further shaped my understanding of Eastern European economic integration, complementing the practical experiences I've gained. With an Excel Certification under my belt, I am equipped to analyze and manage data efficiently, aiming to leverage these competencies in a future role that intersects global business dynamics with robust hospitality management.
