Education
I have completed my Master’s Degree in Finance from the Toulouse Business School in France, one of the best business schools in Europe (ranked 18th best Master in Management in Europe by the Financial Times) and I graduated in September 2010 with a Master in Business Administration (3.9 GPA) from the University of Cincinnati. While pursuing my MBA, I participated to the ACG cup and the case competition. The ACG Cup and the case competition are case study competitions designed to give students from leading MBA programs across the country real world experience and invaluable insights into the business world (mergers and acquisitions, investment banking, financial advisory and consulting). Along with my financial understanding and excellent analytical skills, I believe my proficiency in Excel will enable me to make significant contributions at your company.
Teamwork
One of the many attributes I have been taught over my professional experiences is how to successfully work together with other individuals to achieve a common goal and the ability to multi-task and meet deadlines. While at work I took pride in the fact that my teammates found me to be extremely dependable and never had to worry about me being prepared. In addition, studying and working with successful professionals in the MBA Program has also given me the opportunity to immerse myself successfully in an American work environment and to develop the qualities required to integrate myself rapidly to an international professional environment.
Leadership
While pursuing my Master in Toulouse, I was also President of the Toulouse Business School AP2 association (Student life integration association) and Vice-president of the B3D (Office of the Sustainable Development), Finally, I was Captain of my team during the case competitions.
