About Me

I started studying in the United States to pursue a higher level of education that would allow me to prepare for my professional career in Business Management. By attending Salisbury University, I’ve developed several skills and taken advantage of many opportunities to help me stand out from other students and make the most of my college experience. The next step that I want to take is finding an internship that’s going to help me further develop the skills that I’ll need in my professional career and to get a better sense of the work that I’ll be doing in the future through experiential learning. My goal is to also make a positive impact on the company where I’m interning and hopefully suggest a change that makes a difference long-term.
