About

I am a current undergraduate student at the University of Sussex studying Business Management & Finance. A proven sports leader and mentor, that is able to grasp and learn new concepts quickly. I have a level of intellectual curiosity that includes a broad interest in banking and global markets. I have an aptitude for problem solving and like to create new and innovative solutions. I am a confident, energetic self starter with a strong work ethic and customer service skills, and I enjoy challenges and being part of a team. The relevance of business and finance to everyday life issues such as globalization, the economy and diversity has increased my passion and interest in these area. The intricacies and complex nature are pivotal factors for my choice of career in financial services. I am now focused and eager to grow and develop the necessary skills to further my career.
