About

I am currently an International Business student at Saint Louis University Madrid Campus, Spain.
I consider myself enthusiastic, efficient, punctual and very organized person. I like to work in team, help my colleagues when needed, while maximizing cooperation and effectiveness.
I see very interesting getting, from a simple idea, create a project with using "imagination". My father introduced me into the field of business at age of 18. He dominates the electric sector and knows everything about how this industry works. I was always aspiring to be like him. Once, I noticed that his main mistake was lack of an efficient managerial practice inside the company. Since I've started taking international management courses at SLU I began to have a clear idea of how a business works, how its services and practices can make it more competent, and sustainable as well.
During the last years I've joined many clubs and volunteer programs.
