During the internship at KJUS - LK Internatioal I was part of the product development team. But due to the fact, that the internship took longer than usual, I got the chance to learn a lot and have insights into more of the process, than just the development; This involved big parts of the design process, owning SMU projects, garment and fabric testing, organizing the whole field-testing process, setting up and execute internal sample sales and much more... - overall I got great insights during the year working at KJUS.

Before starting with my studies,it was required to do a practical internship. The main focus was on improving the sewing skills
