Lund

Summary

I am a 24-year-old active economics student at Lund University, currently in my last semester. My professional journey spans diverse roles in administration, logistics, warehouse management, accounting, and B2B communication. Beyond academics, I have cultivated independence, fostering a robust network of contacts.

My commitment extends to active participation in school committees, mainly in Corporate Challenge. In these roles, I've adeptly handled event responsibilities and scheduling, showcasing organizational prowess and a keen interest in leadership.

On a personal note, my passion for travel has taken me to two ski seasons in Saint Anton, Austria and Verbier, Switzerland and a solo trip to Central America. Additionally, I spent my last semester studying abroad in Glasgow, Scotland.
