Summary

Equipped with a robust background in International Commerce with a distinct emphasis on the French language, I recently completed an enriching summer internship in the wealth management sector at Morgan Stanley. My professional competency in French can be traced back to my formative education at a French immersion school, where I honed my linguistic and cultural skills from ages 7 to 14.

This diverse foundation has ignited my passion for international business and cross-cultural understanding, which I believe will be invaluable as I take on a role in the international management sector. I am excited to leverage my background to navigate the complexities of global markets, forge international business partnerships, and drive success in a dynamic and interconnected world.

Accomplishments

My professional journey has been profoundly intertwined with the equestrian community, spanning over a decade. This period has seen me commit to intensive training at an elite level and compete internationally.

A notable example of my dedication is my weekly travels from Boston to Florida during February and March for equestrian competitions, concurrently managing my academic responsibilities. These journeys cultivated exceptional time management and self-reliance, as I undertook them without adult accompaniment.

In a pivotal move to broaden my equestrian expertise, I relocated to Tralee, Co. Kerry the summer before my final year of secondary education. There, I enhanced my stud farm management skills and participated in national and international competitions.

This unwavering dedication has resulted in a significant collection of first-place and champion titles, both nationally and globally.


In addition to accomplishments in the equestrian world, I also received an academic scholarship awarding me for my academic achievements in secondary school.

Volunteering

From a young age, my inclination toward helping others became evident. In 2017, I joined my high school's Blue Key Society, where I provided campus tours to prospective families throughout my time there, continuing this role until graduation.

Additionally, I was selected for the esteemed Peer Education and Mentorship Program at Dana Hall School. As part of this program, I attended regular meetings with mentors and peers, with my primary responsibility being to teach health classes to girls aged 10-14. I also collaborated with fellow instructors to develop lesson plans.

In the period spanning 2018-2019, I volunteered most Sundays at the BINA Farm Centre, an inclusive therapeutic riding program for children with disabilities. My duties encompassed assisting children in grooming, tacking-up, leading horses, aiding in their training, organizing engaging activities, and horse bathing.

A significant part of my volunteer service was dedicated to supporting veterans at the New England and Home for Veterans. It began with serving hot meals to veterans in need on Christmas Day in 2016. Subsequently, I continued to volunteer, performing various tasks and organizing fundraisers and clothing drives at my school to raise awareness and support for the Home.
