Summary

In the last four years of my ongoing university program, I’ve committed myself to various part-time and freelance roles across a range of different fields. Through each job, I’ve picked up a unique set of skills and discovered that my strongest suit is interacting with people. Whether it was social media management for product-based companies, client management for software firms, or working as a barista in a coffee shop, one thing remained consistent—my ability to understand client needs and work with them to meet those needs.

What sets me apart as a valuable asset to companies is my natural curiosity and willingness to dive deep into the work I do. I hope to continue applying the management and psychology skills I’ve gained at university to real-world environments.
